Dicskon said Jonathan and his appointments had failed Bayelsa and Ijaw people

The Nation reported that the governor at the Ijaw House, Yenagoa, spoke during the annual celebration of their hero, Major Adaka Boroh, who fought and killed in the struggle for self-determination for the Ijaws.
Dickson, who was at the event with his deputy, John Jona, and members of his cabinet, said he and some others had suffered from the "Bayelsa-Ijaw disease of the withdrawal syndrome."

Dickson has complained that the scenario under Jonathan repeats him in the current administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, where ministers and designated people of the state refused to use their positions to assist its government's development efforts.
"It's true that we celebrate Boroh, but ask yourself if you're doing your little bit.
"Boroh came and saw his little thing done. I and my team came and we got the battle from where Boroh stopped and we do our duties.
"Each of us must investigate ourselves and to be honest, we did not do much serious investigation into this state and in the Ijaw nation.
"We can not blame God. God was very merciful and kind to us, especially late," he said.
He then laid wreaths in the grave of Boroh in the Heroes' Park in the presence of traditional rulers of the state.
