The Chairman of the Bayelsa State Independent Electoral Commission, Dr. Bertola Perekeme has resigned his position.

A source in the Commission told Channels Television that Dr. Perekeme made this known in a letter dated May 31, 2019, and addressed to the State Governor, Seriake Dickson.

According to the source, the state electoral commission Chairman cited “threats to his life and his immediate family” as reasons for his resignation.

He, however, thanked Governor Seriake Dickson for the opportunity given him to serve and he hoped that the development would not affect the conduct of the forthcoming Local Government Council Elections in the state slated for August 10, 2019.
