PDP Says, APC’s Timipre Sylva Is Not Electable In Bayelsa

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Bayelsa State yesterday described the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Timipre Sylva, as unelectable.

The PDP in a statement by its Secretary, Mr. Keku Godspower frowned at the choice of Sylva, saying that it meant that the APC is not prepared for any serious outing at the election.

Godspower alleged that since Sylva’s emergence, there had been tension and apprehension among Bayelsans, which he attributed to Sylva’s alleged poor human rights record.

While asking the people to vote for the PDP in the election, he also called on the Federal Government to direct its security agencies to take urgent steps to ensure the security of lives and property in the state.

“With the December 5 governorship election around the corner, we call on the people to outrightly reject Sylva’s candidacy. Everybody in Bayelsa knows that Sylva is not electable,” he stated.
