THE Timipre Sylva Campaign for the Bayelsa State 2015 gubernatorial election, on Saturday, dismissed media reports that two additional governors would be joining their Edo State counterpart, Adams Oshiomhole, to organise a fresh All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship Primary in Yenagoa, on Tuesday.
The campaign organisation said this while reacting to media reports that the Sokoto State governor, Honourable Aminu Tambuwal and his Ogun counterpart, Ibikunle Amosun had been drafted to join Oshiomhole for a new primary.
The organisation, in a statement made available by Mr Doifie Buokoribo, described the report as a “cruel hoax,” stressing that there was no way a fresh primary could be organised on Tuesday, as it would amount to an act of “illegality.”
The organisation maintained that an APC standard-bearer for the December 5, 2015 governorship election in Bayelsa State had since emerged, stating that the candidate was no other person than Chief Sylva.
It further insisted that, “No amount of media manipulation can change that. This is a society of law and order.”
The organisation declared that there was no way a hopelessly compromised Oshiomhole, who it said, had also openly displayed his bias, could be asked again to go and conduct an election in Bayelsa State, adding that even his masters knew that would be unacceptable to Nigerians.
“Let us restate here that an APC candidate for the December 5, 2015 governorship election in Bayelsa State has emerged and that candidate is Chief Timipre Sylva.
