It's an over-kill to say that Bayelsans are apprehensive and in state of fear over tribunal judgement, judgement will come, judgement will go but Senator Douye Diri remains Governor.
However, my take on the expected tribunal judgement is that Vijah Opuama case is technically defective as most of the other cases these are issues of Qualifications which are pre- election matter. The case of ANDP exclusion seems the most potent but also technically deficient.
Senator Douye Diri remains Governor of Bayelsa State.

Same appeal court ruled in favour of inec two months ago. Two conflicting court judgements for that matter. Even the recent judgement didn't say inec should order fresh election in Kogi state

The fear and anxiety is only the imagination of the writer of this news. I am not aware of such on the streets and government quarters of Bayelsa state.

why mentioning me here na? One, I'm not from bayelsa and secondly, I'm not a pdp man. My support for obaseki doesn't make me pdp even though edo is traditionally pdp. Had Oshomole not disqualified him, he would have remained in the apc and we would have voted him under same apc. I foresee court cases after obaseki's win but he would scale all hurdles because his matter isn't same as what's obtainable in bayelsa and I'd tell you why.

I've profiled obaseki before I supported him. People were just making needless noise on his certificate. UI admitted with an HSC result in their time. It was higher than WAEC. it's like the IJMB of that time. If you possess an IJMB result without waec, any university in Nigeria would admit you today. UI confirmed he schooled there and graduated. If he presented a result with 3 credit passes to inec during registration this time, that doesn't disqualify him in any way. They claimed he didn't have waec so he did the needful. Dapo Abiodin,the Ogun Governor first submitted his OAU Engineering Degree certificate when he first entered ogun politics to inec, but when he wanted to contest last year, he submitted only waec result. Did that disqualify him? NO. With Primary 6 result, you can contest for governorship in Nigeria. Waec isn't an equivalent of HSC Certificate, take note. The latter is higher and recognised by all universities in his time. Up till 2010, FUT Minna admitted with 4 credit passes. Requirements for admission in those days are different from what we have nowadays. Go and ask oshiomohle, he didn't have a secondary school cert. He only had primary six with a trade test certificate yet he qualified as governor. Also, the NYSC Certificate issue wasn't any issue. The issuing body had corrected the typo error and reissued it to him. Anyone who's not cool with that can sue both the nysc and obaseki in court and that's the beauty of democracy.

The reason we still throw our wits behind him has been that he's the candidate to beat, given his achievement in edo, ideas and personality. Even if obaseki had gone to Labour party instead of the pdp to contest we would have gone with him and that still doesn't make me a labour party man. We're talking of personality here and not party. When we say edo isn't lagos or any other state, we mean our words. We don't vote along party lines. Rather we vote personality. Even when it's glaring that edo was unrepentant PDP, we voted oshiomohle who didn't even have up to 5m naira in his account as at the time he was contesting. People donated overwhelmingly to print shirts, campaign posters etc for him without expecting anything in return. The pdp candidate then had all the money to throw away. We collected his money and cleaned mouth.

Most of us voted buhari not because of apc but because of his personality. Left to the party's formation and all the morons making up the structure, no single vote of mine and that of my family would ever have gone to the apc. Once buhari leaves, no single individual has his kind of pedigree in the party anymore, the party collapses. Those thinking tinubu would succeed buhari, I wish them luck. They had better begin to look inwards for a better candidate now. Yoruba is just a part of nigeria and only the region's vote can't elect their candidate. That's why they should drop tinubu if they must win. Hope you know my position now. If they like let them sack bayelsa governor, e no concern me. Good morning.
So Nostrademus dey Nairalandhuh... That's Nice

Has any higher court of authority set aside the first one? Is there anywhere the court said inec should conduct fresh election in kogi and bayelsa state? ANDP even went to tribunal without its candidate

Even if the entire nation is in chaos and both his parents are killed by buhari foot soldiers (fulani jihadists) he will never bother and has no problem with that. All he knows is election and Apc, how Apc is going to use federal mighty and thugs to win election.

Have you ever seen him write on the state of the nation; the insecurity and the killings going on in southern kaduna and other places?

What do one expect from someone that love buhari and Apc?

Charge and bail lawyer for you.
I am pretty sure the guy isn’t a lawyer, he lacks knowledge and can hardly put together a sentence.

Your opinion is defective.all matters relating to qualifications are now post election matters.if the trap of opuama doesn't capture him,that of aa led by pastor diriyai will hold

Which knowledge am I lacking? You that has knowledge,why not analyse the case and tell us whether your party candidate forged his nysc cert or not? You pdp fans always flee from substantive issues,you rather pander to emotions.your moniker self na issue

Yes but I know a case of forgery has been established.if you read pdp's written address,you will see that they indirectly conceded to that fact and are hoping to win the case on technicalities
Re: Bayelsa Governorship Election: Tribunal Fixes Saturday For Judgment by Yankee101: 1:22pm On Aug 14, 2020
Is there no deadline for election petitions?

Why should you spend half your tenure fighting court cases?

Even the system dosen't seem to favor development. Goodluck lost, and didnt fight, so that any failure of the new govt will be all theirs
