The Supreme Court judgement on Bayelsa State election has created mixed feelings ahead of the February 14 expiration of Governor Seriake Dickson’s administration.
Jubilation erupted in Bayelsa State Government House and the PDP secretariat in Yenagoa as PDP faithful trooped to the areas with drums to celebrate the judgment. The roundabout was, however, decorated with the flags of the All Progressives Congress ahead of the event. As part of preparations for the inauguration, Lyon attended a parade rehearsal at the Samson Siasia Sports Complex where the event is scheduled to hold on Friday.
But immediately after the judgement, PDP faithful rushed to the roundabout to pull down the flags and shred them. While congratulating Diri and Ehrudjakpor, he expressed gratitude to God Almighty and judges at the apex court for standing true to the law.
