The former minister of state for petroleum resources, Timipre Sylva, has demanded the immediate withdrawal of the amended list of candidates for the Bayelsa governorship election released by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The commission had earlier on Wednesday omitted Sylva’s name in the amended list of candidates for the election.
This followed the October 9 ruling by the Federal High Court, Abuja, which disqualified the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate from the election.
