Bayelsa: Oshiomhole can’t stop PDP’s Diri – Wike reacts to Supreme Court’s sack of Lyon
Wike said Oshiomhole has no power to stop Diri Douye’s swearing-in as governor of Bayelsa State.The apex court also declared Douye Diri of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, winner of the last governorship election in the state.
Displeased by the ruling, Oshiomhole had vowed that nobody will be sworn-in as Bayelsa State governor because Lyon of the APC had the highest number of votes.Describing Oshiomhole’s remark as inflammatory, Wike said such comment is capable of destabilising Nigeria.He said: “Who is Oshiomhole to determine who has spread in a state? Supreme Court has made a ruling. It is unfortunate for Oshiomhole to come forward to say that nobody will be sworn in.
“He believes that he has the forces to cause crisis. He is arrogating powers to himself, which is not good “
