Former Governor Timipre Sylva of Bayelsa State has revealed ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s secret…

“My problems began after the demise of ex-President Umar  Yar’Adua. Goodluck Jonathan, his vice-president at the time, replaced him as president. As governor of Bayelsa, State, I had running battles till the day I got in with the Jonathan system because I did not come through the Jonathan succession plan.”

“He wanted a different succession plan. I came in without him being in control and ended up as governor, so as vice-president, he started fighting me and that was how my election was annulled in 2008 and I went back for re-election. Of course, Yar’adua at that time as president protected me because he saw the good work I was doing.”
