Bayelsa, Nigeria, Oct 19, 2016 – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Bayelsa State has called on candidate of the All Progressive Congress(APC) in the 2015 governorship election, Mr, Timipre Sylva to stop desecrating judiciary.
PDP TO SYLVA: STOP DESECRATING THE JUDICIARY
In a statement issued by its Chairman, Chief Moses Cleopas,the party said it was waiting for Sylva and APC to prove its case before the apex court since Sylva’s case were thrown out unanimously by the two lower courts.
“It is clear that Sylva and the APC have no case. All they are banking on is the dangerous propaganda that President Muhammadu Buhari will secure judgment for them by intimidating the judiciary to deliver judgment in his favour.
“But this proposition is certainly untenable in the face of what we went through in that election and indeed the facts in our favour.

“The APC is a party of deception and propaganda. The ongoing attack on the judiciary is a not a fight against corruption but an attempt to cow the judiciary and other arms of government.
“ When they intimidate, harass the judiciary to do their bidding as Sylva is doing in Bayelsa, it is not corruption. Sylva’s latest move, if allowed, will be the final blow to the judiciary especially the Supreme Court.”
