Former President Goodluck Jonathan has sent a goodwill message to Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson, on his 54th birthday.
Mr Jonathan, in a letter he personally signed, prayed for Dickson to receive favour and have good health.
“I felicitate with you, your family and friends as you mark your 54th birthday. Life is the greatest of all gifts God has given to man,” he said.
“It is, therefore, a thing of joy that God has kept you in good health, and blessed you with success in life.
“As you celebrate, my family and I wish you more glory and pray God’s grace will continue to sustain you on the lanes of favour and sound health.”
The duo have in recent times been said to be on different sides of the divide.
The reported rift between them is also believed to have contributed to the loss of the oil-rich state to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the governorship election held last November.
