Court Rules On PDP Bayelsa Senatorial Primary, Affirms Friday-Benson As Candidate
A Federal High Court sitting in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, has upheld Dr. Konbowei Friday-Benson as the authentic candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP for the Bayelsa Central Senatorial elections. The serving senator representing Bayelsa Central in the National Assembly, Senator Moses Cleopas had in May lost his bid to return to the Senate for a second term as he lost the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primaries to Konbowei Benson. Cleopas, a former state chairman of the PDP scored a paltry 22 votes out of 132 delegates that exercised their franchise.
