A frontline aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bayelsa State, Preye Aganaba, has asked the High Court sitting in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State
, to void the primaries that produced Chief David Lyon as the candidate of the party for the Novermber 16 governorship election in the state.
He also asked the court to make a declaration that since there were no primaries, the declaration of results that produced David Lyon as the candidate of the party was illegal, unconstitutional, null and void and of no effect.The aspirant further demanded an order setting aside the results of the APC primary election, which returned Lyon as the candidate of the party for November 16 election.
“An order restraining Lyon from parading himself as or holding himself out as the candidate of the APC in the forthcoming Bayelsa State Governorship election”.
