BAYELSA GOVERNORSHIP RACE : APC ABSOLVES JOSHUA MACIVER FROM VIRAL VIDEO

The attention of Bayelsa State National Gubernatorial Campaign Council of our great Party (APC) has been drawn to a circulating video purportedly showing our Deputy Governorship Candidate and Peace Advocate, GREAT JOSHUA MACIVER claiming he broke free from a prison facility.

To set the records straight as regards the video, our deputy governorship candidate attended a function in Amassoama, a town in Southern Ijaw LGA for campaign event. There was no such discussion there about jail break during that event. To execute a sinister plan, the audio and video were doctored and altered. The PDP should deploy technology to better use than go so low to deploy for such deplorable ends. The spread of the doctored video particularly on various social media platforms is a laid-out plan leading to the November 11 Gubernatorial Election in Bayelsa State orchestrated by the Peoples Democratic Party. It is geared towards misleading and misinforming the general public. We are therefore asking the general public to please take note of the antics of the PDP in Bayelsa State only intent on blackmail and propaganda.

Putting things in proper perspective, our deputy governorship candidate, a revered peace advocate and ex-agitator was granted unconditional pardon by late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua in 2009, hence he is a beneficiary of the Presidential Amnesty Program as validated by the office of the Interim Administrator of the PAP at the Presidency, hereunder posted. Additionally, the Nigerian Correctional Service in reply to enquiries confirmed that Great Joshua Maciver was granted amnesty pursuant to the Amnesty Proclamation dated the 25th June 2009 in exercise of the powers vested on the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria under section 175 of the Nigerian constitution. This gives Great Joshua Maciver, like every other Nigerian, the right to vote and be voted for.

This is another plan from the playbook of the People’s Democratic Party and its candidate to embark on several wild goose chase as it is clear that Chief Timipre Sylva and Great Joshua Maciver, with the overwhelming support of Bayelsans, is the next Governor and Deputy Governor of Bayelsa State respectively, come February 14, 2024.

Furthermore, Credible report at our disposal also shows that the Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate are shopping for court injunctions to stop Chief Timipre Sylva from contesting the November 11 gubernatorial election on the premise that his wife and incoming First Lady, Mrs. Alayingi Sylva is not from Bayelsa! How much lower can a party go? Scared of taking part in the governorship election? While our governorship candidate and deputy governorship candidate are busy with campaign activities traversing communities in Bayelsa State with resounding successes recorded in Bayelsa West Senatorial District, and as we prepare to visit Bayelsa Central, the Peoples Democratic Party, overwhelmed with fear of losing the election has resorted to blackmail.

We remain resolute as ever in our campaign activities leading to the governorship election to show Bayelsans how we will bring hope and break loose from the vicious circle of poverty in the state with our Renewed Hope for Bayelsa agenda of Chief Timipre Sylva becoming Governor of Bayelsa State come February 14, 2024! We will win. Victory is ours and assured. APC!!!!
