He however, said he would not give details and reasons he was being quizzed.
But it was gathered that the former Bayelsa governor went to the EFCC’s office in Abuja himself upon his invitation to answer some questions regarding allegations of fraud during his administration as governor of Bayelsa.

The former governor arrived the EFCC’s office around 11.00am to face the commission’s detectives waiting to grill him.

Dickson was governor of Bayelsa State between February 14, 2012 to February 14, 2020.
He officially handed over to Douye Diri after the Supreme Court nullified the election of David Lyon of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) as governor of Bayelsa.
