The Supreme Court of Nigeria has reaffirmed the electoral victory of Bayelsa State Governor, Duoye Diri, of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
This decision marks a significant milestone in the state’s political history and puts an end to the legal battle surrounding the November 11, 2023, gubernatorial election.
The five-member panel of the Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, dismissed the appeal filed by Timipre Sylva, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), challenging the election outcome.
