The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday, has dismissed the appeal filed by Chief Timipre Sylva and the All Progressives Congress (APC) challenging the re-election of Governor Douye Diri of Bayelsa State.
The three-man panel in a unanimous decision, ruled that the appeal was incompetent and constituted an abuse of court process, thereby affirming the judgment of the Bayelsa State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal.
