Supreme Court dismisses Lyon, APC’s application for Bayelsa judgement review

David Lyon Bayelsa

The Supreme Court has struck out an application for review of the judgement which sacked David Lyon and Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo as winners of the governorship election held last November in Bayelsa.

According to the seven-man panel of the court led by Justice Sylvester Ngwuta on Wednesday, the applications filed by the APC and Mr Lyon, were “vexatious, frivolous, and constituted a gross abuse of court process.”

Justice Amina Augie, who read the judgement, said the application lacks merit, and that the court’s decisions were final.
