Comrade Adams Oshiomhole , National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress(APC), says no other person aside the APC governorship candidate, David Lyon meet the requirements of the Supreme Court to be sworn in on Friday as Bayelsa Governor.

Oshiomhole made this declaration at a news conference in Abuja in reaction to the Supreme Court verdict which sacked Lyon as Governor-elect on Thursday afternoon.

According to him, the judgement of the Supreme Court said the certificate of return should be issued to the candidate, who has the required spread in the election aside from David Lyon.
