BREAKING: Tribunal nullifies Bayelsa governorship election

The Bayelsa State Gubernatorial Petition Tribunal has nullified the election of Governor Duoye Diri of Bayelsa State.
The election was nullified based on a petition by the Advanced Nigeria Democratic Party (ANDP) , which argued that it was unlawfully excluded from participating in the election.

The tribunal ruling however, could still be contested at the appeal court.

The ruling comes two days after the tribunal dismissed three other petitions against the election of Mr Diri of the Peoples Democratic Party.
