Bayesla Governorship election legal tussle
According to sources familiar with the schemes, DSS operatives seized
their phones, went through call logs and messages of the two brothers,
looking for elements to implicate the Chief Justice and link him with
bizarre corruption issues over the Bayelsa Bayelsa judgement.

Progressives Congress’ application for a review of its February 13, 2020
judgment which overturned its victory in the last governorship election
in Bayelsa State.

again lose at the apex court, the APC decided to intimidate the
judiciary, piling pressure on CJN Tanko to review the Supreme Court
judgment on Bayelsa state governorship election.

judgment in favor of the APC.
Pointblanknews.com investigation reveal that while Sirajo has been
