The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bayelsa State says it will appeal the disqualification order by the High Court on its governorship candidate, Chief Timipre Sylva in the November 11 election.

Daily Report Nigeria reports that the Federal High Court in Abuja disqualified Sylva on Monday because he had already served two terms as governor of the state.

The suit was filed on June 13, 2023, by Mr Deme Kolomo, a member of the APC.

The APC stated its intention in a statement issued on Tuesday by the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC Bayelsa Gubernatorial Campaign Council, Mr Perry Tukuwei.

According to Tukuwei, the party was confident that the Court of Appeal would overturn the High Court judgment.

He said:

The party has briefed its lawyers to appeal the judgement, and it is confident that the Court of Appeal will overturn the judgement of the Federal High Court.

“This reassurance is in reaction to a judgement which has the Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate written all over it by a Federal High Court in Abuja in an already failed bid to dash the hopes of Bayelsa people, to have their preferred candidate, Chief Timipre Sylva, as the next helmsman at Creek Haven by Feb. 14, 2024.”
