The National Chairman of
the All Progressives Congress(APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has declared the
candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senator Douye Diri cannot be
sworn in on Friday as Bayelsa Governor because he did not meet the requirements
of the Supreme Court. 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.”
