Bayelsa: APC Rebuffs Judgment Against Sylva, To Flag Off Campaign On Saturday

The All Progressives Congress, APC has reiterated the candidature of Timipre Sylva as the party’s candidate in the forthcoming governorship election in Bayelsa State vowing to flag off the campaign on Saturday.

The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr Felix Morka in a statement made available to GWG.ng reiterated the decision to appeal the Federal High Court judgment in Abuja that removed Sylva as the party’s candidate.

Morka in the statement said:

“Against the backdrop of an Abuja Federal High Court decision that disqualified the Governorship Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Timipre Sylva, we wish to state categorically that Chief Sylva is and remains the Bayelsa State Governorship Candidate of our great Party in the November 11, 2023 Governorship election.

“Our Party and its Candidate have duly instructed the legal team to appeal the said decision of the Federal High Court, diligently and expeditiously.

“We urge our teeming members, supporters, and residents of Bayelsa State to remain calm and await the outcome of the appeal, and we remain confident that we shall prevail.

“With nothing to offer the Bayelsa electorate, following its lacklustre performance as the ruling party, the jittery PDP in the Bayelsa state has since resorted to mercenary lawsuits, underhand dealings and antics to distract and create confusion among the good people of the state.

“We wish to reconfirm that the Party’s Governorship Campaign Flag Off will be held on Saturday, 14th October, 2023 in Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital. All stakeholders, Party members, supporters, and the general public are cordially invited to join the winning campaign,” the APC said of its determination to flag off the Sylva campaign on Saturday.
