…says Timipre Sylva remains its candidate<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the run-up to the Bayelsa Gubernatorial elections, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has issued a stern warning to the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), cautioning that employing multiple lawsuits akin to hiring mercenaries will not save them from an impending defeat.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In a statement issued by the Felix Morka, the party’s National Publicity Secretary in Abuja against the backdrop of an Abuja Federal High Court decision that disqualified the party’s Governorship Candidate, Chief Timipre Sylva, Morka said “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.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
APC also noted that the party and its Candidate have duly instructed its legal team to appeal the said decision of the Federal High Court, “diligently and expeditiously.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“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,” APC noted.<\/p>\n
