Echoes From Supreme Court Judgment On Bayelsa State Governorship Election By Stanley Imhanruor Esq. | Sahara Reporters In fairness to the Supreme Court justices, they interpreted the law strictly the way it is. READ MORE:

One can argue that the Supreme Court ought to have looked beyond the dry letters of the law in disqualifying and invalidating the election of Mr Lyon but often time the strict interpretation of the law does not come out beautiful and pleasurable.
