PDP’s DIRI CANNOT BE SWORN IN AS BAYELSA GOVERNOR -ADAMS OSHIOMHOLE

The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has reacted to the Supreme Court judgement nullifying David Lyon as the governor to be sworn in on Friday, saying the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate did not meet the requirement to be sworn in as directed.

At an ongoing press conference, Oshiomhole declared that “Nobody will be sworn in on Friday as the new governor in Bayelsa state.”

Oshiomhole said the Supreme Court judgement did not order that the PDP governorship candidate should be sworn in.


“In this case nobody apart from David Lyon meet desire spread as expressed by the Supreme Court.

“The next candidate who happens to be a PDP candidate does not have one quarter of the votes cast in that election.”
