Bayelsa state Governor, Seriake Dickson has sent a congratulatory message to Muhammadu Buhari and Prof. Yemi Osinbajo on their successful inauguration as President and Vice President of the Federal 
Republic of Nigeria, respectively.
In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Daniel Iworiso-Markson, on Friday in Yenagoa, Governor Dickson said:
“The Government of Bayelsa State wishes President Muhammadu Buhari and Prof. Yemi Osinbajo a successful tenure as President and Vice President of our great nation, Nigeria.
“As a government, we appreciate the fact that only a man with a firm vision and love for his country could undertake such a long journey, notwithstanding the rigours of preceding unsuccessful attempts.
“Your doggedness and uncompromising posture of always standing for what is right, just, equitable and fair, will no doubt, serve as key drivers in your administration’s quest to deliver on the various lofty electoral promises.
“It is against this backdrop that we wish both you and your able vice, good health, vigour and the wisdom to pilot the affairs of the nation in the next four years.
“In the same vein, we also join millions of Nigerians and the international community in commending and applauding the immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan for a smooth transition.”
He urged the President to sustain the legacy of democracy and stability that Goodluck Jonathan had left behind.
