The part claimed he did not meet the constitutionally electoral requirements for inauguration as directed by the court.
He said the APC and the people of Bayelsa totally rejected the judgement and called on the Independent National Electoral Commission not to issue certificate of return to Diri. “We are calling on INEC not to issue certificate of return to the candidate of the PDP because the candidate of the PDP was unable to score the required 25 per cent in the two third of the local government areas.
He said: “The court has decided and I dont think the national chairman of the APC is competent to seek an appeal over the decisions of the Supreme Court. He said the judgement was victory for democracy and all Bayelsans across party lines and called on the opposition leaders to rein in their supporters.
