Recall that the Supreme Court had sacked David Lyon over Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo alleged certificates forgery.
Speaking in an interview on Channels Tv on Monday, Sylva who maintained that the APC was negated in the Supreme Court Judgement, said he (Silva) is dealing with a matter of life and death.
According to the party leader, the apex court failed to call witnesses to establish the claims that the former APC deputy governor-elect allegedly forged his certificate.
”I’m dealing with a former Deputy-Governor that is on the verge of committing suicide. This is a matter of life and death. Every day I have to call to find out that he hasn’t done anything to himself
”If someone said you forge your certificate and you have built your life and integrity and someone all of a sudden brings everything down that can lead to suicide.
”If you have a case in court challenging the authenticity of the certificate of a candidate that is a different one but if you say it is a case of forgery and you have not heard from the person concerned then you have not established anything.
”You haven’t gone to school or university where this person studied to confirm the veracity of the allegation but you already condemn the person. It’s is very sad and dangerous.
The former Governor of Bayelsa State further explained that APC approached the Supreme Court for a review because its candidate was wrongly accused.
Sylva added that the apex court should have disqualified the APC deputy candidate and allow David Lyon to be sworn-in because the lower court did not disqualify him.
The Supreme Court should have the courage to revert itself. It has happened before.
”They claim he forged certificate, which certificate did he forge? Was it his primary certificate or university certificate? What has been established?
”If you want to prove forgery then you must have the original. Now you say you have a variant in the name so which one is the original. None of that was established. that is not how to prove forgery.
”If you say you are upholding the judgment of the lower court then the judgment of the lower Court did not disqualify our governorship candidate, so where did the Supreme Court have this other thing to add to the judgment of the lower court. If you are going to uphold the judgment of the lower court then disqualify the deputy governor and allow the governor to carry on. ”

So are they saying he was cheated???
ReplyDeleteWhich kind question be this for this early morning?
DeleteSee JAMB question.
DeleteSUICIDAL IS NOW FASHION FOR NAIJA
ReplyDeleteHm that judgement was a great witch hunt. I don’t even know why Mary odili was allowed to be on that panel with the conflict of interest.
ReplyDeleteI personally think she should have recused herself from that particular case. There is a conflict of interest there.
DeleteNyen nyen nyen
ReplyDeleteEeyah! APC finding it difficult to drink bitter pill of corrupt judicial system.
ReplyDeleteThis is serious though. I hope he does not do anything to himself. I think he’s feeling so bad about being the main reason why David Lyon. Lost his gubernatorial slot. It’s natural to beat oneself up but suicide is not an option. He needs a strong support system to weather this storm with his plenty names.
ReplyDeleteNoted. Next Person Please!
ReplyDeleteIt’s always bad when you are the reason for someone’s downfall. But my question is why did they not address all these when he was a member of the senate? They just needed to take the governor out by all means and he made it so easy for them.
ReplyDeleteHe forged his certificate period.
ReplyDeleteHow can someone be changing names any how?
From Degi Biobara to Adegi Biobarakumo
to Degi Biobarakuma to Degi Biobarakuma Wangaha
Right now he is addressed as
Mr Degi-Eremienyo.
Oga which one is your real name?
I see you really crammed the many names of the Deputy that never was. We can call him by all the names together.
DeleteIs there any difference in the aforementioned names?
DeleteIt's just like someone whose name is iniobong...the person might decide to bear ini or obong or obongini..Is there a difference?
DeleteKill yourself now. Cheer up Biko, Lyon understands it's not the end of the world.
ReplyDeleteNever mind, your party might compensate/ pacify you with a political post. Na una una
Why you sef no choose one name. At every stage of your life, you were changing names like undies, wetin dey do you sef or what were you thinkingš¤
ReplyDeleteWhy did the judge pass judgement without carrying out adequate investigation.
ReplyDeleteCan't we have a constitution where by all the top judges won't belong to any political party to avoid being biased in their judgements. They will always rule in favor of their party.
ReplyDeleteYou took the words out of my mouth #candix
DeleteThey'll still be BOURHT over by the rulers and/or the highest bidder. No be dis same Naija pple?
DeleteI bet the judges advised him to keep changing his name like camelion abi, until we leave sentiment aside when it comes to politics, we will continue to be governed by people with questionable character. For those of you calling Mary Odili, please stop it, the decision was unanimously taken by five judges, she only read their decision, her opinion alone wouldn't have counted if the other judge had contrary view. Note: both APC and PDP are two sides of a coin, they only rant court decisions do not favour them
ReplyDeleteSo you think they will not align their votes with hers?
DeleteGuess you don’t know how those guys operate.
mary odili in conjunction with peter odili bought the other judges
