The Bayelsa State All Progressives Congress (APC) Gubernatorial Campaign Council has faulted the judgement of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, which

disqualified the APC candidate, Timipre Sylva, from the November 11 governorship election in the State.LEADERSHIP reports that Justice Donatus Okorowo had on Monday, October 9, 2023 ruled that Sylva was not qualified to be in the Bayelsa governorship race for third time, in a lawsuit numbered FHC/ABJ/CS/821/2023, and filed by Chief Demesuoyefa Kolomo, a member of the APC, on June 13, 2023.

He alleged that the judgement which had the Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate written all over it, was already a failed bid to dash the hopes of Bayelsans to have their preferred candidate, Chief Timipre Sylva, as the next helmsman at the Creek Haven seat of power in Yenagoa.
