Image result for APC primary: David Lyon floors Lokpobiri at Appeal CourtAn appeal court in Port Harcourt, Rivers state, has struck out the suit challenging the emergence of David Lyon as the governorship candidate of
the All Progressive Congress.

The three-man panel also struck out the appeal of Senator Heineken Lokpobiri describing it as statute barred.

About ninety percent of the people in the courtroom are from Bayelsa waiting for the judgement of a three-man panel led by Justice Isaiah
Olufemi Akeju.

Three appeals were filed by David Lyon, Heineken Lokpobiri and the All Progressives Congress against the judgement of the Federal High Court,
Yenagoa which held that they were products of flawed primaries on the 4th of September, 2019.

The Judges held that Senator Lokpobiri failed to comply with the statutory 14 days period, describing it as statute barred. The Appeal Court also overturned the judgement of the lower court.

Supporters of David Lyon were also in court to witness the judgement of the Court of Appeal.

The businessman from Olugbobiri was declared winner of the Governorship contest in Bayelsa but it seems the matter is going down the wire with
Senator Heineken Lokpobiri heading to the Supreme Court.
