Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson has urged Nigerians to stop calling President Muhammadu Buhari 'Baba go slow', which in his opinion tarnishes the reputation of his office in the international community.
The governor stated this on Tuesday, 18th of August while speaking at the Eko Hotels and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos during a news conference. He termed such a derogatory name as "bad politicking",
He also condemned those who referred to former President Goodluck Jonathan as “clueless”, saying it was wrong to demean the occupier of the highest office in the land.
He said, “What are you saying when you call President Buhari ‘Baba go slow?’ In what light are you putting the President before the international community? When you refer to someone as ‘clueless’, what do you mean?”
Dickson explained that politics must be played with honour, dignity and integrity, stressing that the best way to develop the country was for the opposition and the ruling party to integrate ideas and put the interest of the nation first always.
