The Speaker said, “these daredevils have succeeded in their satanic plots in causing divisions among the political players in Southern Ijaw Constituency 4 which I currently represent are threatening to lead massive defection members of PDP in Southern Ijaw constituency 4.”
However, Konbowei said, he has respectfully served the constituency with the fear of God, and have delivered the dividends of democracy to his people.
“I want to urge those behind the act to rather face their elections with the attitude to either win or lose rather than threatening my life.”
