APC hails Appeal Court’s reinstatement of Sylva for Bayelsa guber poll

APC

The Bayelsa chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has hailed the judgment of the Court of Appeal setting aside the disqualification Chief Timipre Sylva, the governorship candidate of the party from the Nov 11 poll.

The Bayelsa State APC Publicity Secretary, Mr Doifie Buokoribo said this in Yenagoa on Tuesday in a statement.

“The Appeal Court by its ruling has given the people of Bayelsa a choice on Nov. 11. A choice between light and darkness. A choice between moving to the mountain top and descending to the valley below.

“A choice between moving forward and backward. Democracy is about choices. And the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in sponsoring this frivolous case has demonstrated its mortal fear of our party, APC, and candidate, Chief Timipre Sylva.

“The PDP is desperate. They do not want us on the ballot. We thank God that this distraction is now over. Justice has been served,” he said.
