Barely 48 hours to the governorship election in Bayelsa state, the Federal High Court sitting in Yenagoa, the state capital, has ruled that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has no candidate for the Saturday, November 16 poll.
Justice Jane Inyang delivered the ruling, on Thursday, as part of its judgement in a case filed by Heineken Lokpobiri, one of the APC governorship aspirants.
Lokpobiri, a former minister of state for agriculture, had approached the court, asking it to declare him, and not David Lyon, the authentic candidate of the APC.
