Bayelsa Election: Court Declares APC Has No Governorship Candidate

It was Rivers and Zamfara states in February, and now it looks like it’s the turn of Bayelsa state to be found wanting in fielding a candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress party. 

The Federal High Court sitting in the state capital, Yenagoa has annulled the direct primary conducted by the All Progressives Congress (APC) that produced Chief David Lyon as the governorship candidate of the party. This means that the party has no candidate in the elections that is supposed to take place in two days. 

The electoral commission, while reacting to this new development, has said the election will go on despite the disqualification of the APC candidate.
