Angry protesters suspected to be of All Progressives Congress (APC) have attacked the residence of PDP candidate during the November 16, 2019 governorship election and now Governor elect, Senator Douye Diri over the Supreme Court Judgement which ousted the candidate of APC, Chief David Lyon on Friday.

The protesters, who had earlier on Friday barricaded the streets of Yenagoa in protest of the judgement, later went violent destroying property of some PDP chieftains.

They destroyed the windscreen of cars packed at the premises of the governor-elect, doors and windows at the residence. People who were around at the premises said they had to scamper for safety, when the hoodlums came visiting.

They also attacked the public library belonging to the member representing Yenagoa and Kolokuma/Opokuma federal constituency in the National Assembly, Prof Steve Azaiki, PDP Secretariat in Yenagoa and radio Bayelsa station.

I saw it coming.you cannot fight the majority and succeed.he is not wanted.

Only fools fight for wicked Nigerian politicians who do not give a hoot about anybody apart from servicing their pockets.

Hope Oshiomole is happy now
The toadface should be arrested

No need he will recover the loss in less than no time.

PDP protested & are still protesting the controversial Supreme court ruling on the Imo guber case but nothing was destroyed but because Bayelsa will not go their way today, imagine the magnitude of destruction.

From the public nuisance bonfires, obstruction of traffic flow on major highway across the state, destruction @ Bayelsa Radio & now this latest one.You dont expect anything good from APC.Their five years of ruling Nigeria is telling.

APC trademark is destruction

I don't understand, Diri didn't declare himself governor, the supreme court did, they should go to the Supreme court or the five judges houses and stone them na...

Judgement day

Dem go soon dey alright

these are sponsored thugs not protesters.
nairaland APC at work as usual

Douye Diri was imposed on the Bayelsa people against the popular wish of people by a reknown PDP jury.

Now Secundo will keep quiet because according to him it's justice for democracy.

Same way Hope Uzodinma was imposed on imo people. Victory dey sweet sha

They have only succeeded in subtracting from the state budget... Nigga will just build a new house!!!

When APC got IMO PDP didn't scatter such but just because der clueless party with deputy with numerous names got booted out dey went destroying anyway after today dey man will renovate it with state money have police vans station der and will still govern u foolish party dissident

Gov Diri please forgive them for they do not know what they are doing. However, use the Bayelsa fund to repair, replace or refund whatsoever destroyed. Show them sense.

Gff

Waste of time. The Money that they will use to govern then will be used to buy bigger properties to replace those destroyed. By the time State budget is read live during presentation and budget allocations highlighted at their launching, then their eye go clear. Destroying more of those properties will open way for contracts worth billions of Naira for PDP stalwarts and their contractors

Okay

APC party of violent and destruction, they spreads hate, frustration and anger anywhere they goes.

PDP has been protesting for the past weeks without any anyone getting a single scratch.
But look at the level of destruction carried out by the apc in just few hours

It's gonna be a long Valentine day/night on Bayelsa.

My problem is why didnt all bayelsans muster enough crowds and force to protest against Dicksons misrule..

What do you expect from the Boko Haram party .
The even attacked and destroyed a public Library is that not what Boko Haram is all about ni?

Bayelsans are truly dumb,how is all this his fault now,so they think all this drama is gonna overturn an apex court verdict, they'll reap their foolishness when he's settled in
