“David Lyon is Qualify to Contest Bayelsa Fresh Election” – FESTUS AYIM (SAN) Wrote:

Chief David Lyon of APC won Bayelsa Governorship election credibly but was disqualified because his deputy was accused of certificate forgery.

David Lyon was sacked by the Supreme court on the eve of his inauguration, today Tribunal court nullified the election on the petition filed by another political party (ANDP).

That the Independent National Electoral Commission excluded the party on the ballot, and now ordered the INEC to Conduct the election within 90 days allowing all parties to participate.

Now let us trace our memories back to 1999.

In 1999 Adamu Mu’azu of Bauchi won governorship election but tribunal and Supreme court ordered a fresh election because his deputy certificate was forged. Adamu Mu’azu choose another new person as a Deputy and contested the fresh election ordered by the Supreme Court.

He won the fresh election free and fair and rule Bauchi state for 8 years, he handed over power to his successor Mallam Isa Yuguda.

Adamu Mu’azu became PDP National chairman from 2014 to 2015.

Now it’s about fresh election, going by this I think David Lyon can shop for another deputy and participate in the election.

APC’s Fate in Bayelsa is now….

Section 33 and 35 of the electoral acts clearly stated that the APC can contest in the fresh elections. APC Deputy Governorship candidate in Bayelsa can withdraw his Nomination at least 45 Days before The elections. The court ordered a fresh elections conducted in 90 days.
