Ahead of the 2023 Presidential Elections in Nigeria, the visit to Bayelsa was part of the broader mission of Dokpesi to engage political stakeholders across the country on the need to choose the right man for the job of the president in 2023.
At the Government House Yenagoa where he was received by Governor Douye Diri, Dokpesi noted that with the huge challenges in the areas of security and economy, Nigeria needs someone in the mold of Atiku Abubakar to fix the problems.
