The Peoples Democratic Party has cleared Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri for 2nd term after successfully undergone screening for the November 11, 2023 governorship election in the state.
The PDP Governorship Screening Committee for Bayelsa State cleared him during the exercise at the party’s headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday.
Diri, who is seeking a second term, was the only aspirant from the party that picked the nomination and expression of interest forms for the forthcoming governorship poll.
The screening committee chairman and Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, said the panel screened Diri in line with guidelines of the party and as stipulated in the electoral law.
He said, “We have checked the documents of Governor Douye Diri and have also interviewed him. Having satisfied our question-and-answer process, we discovered that he is not only worthy to contest the election, but also have no encumbrances as far as his documents are concerned.
“Regardless of the fact that he is the incumbent governor and having been a Senator of the Federal Republic, we still went through his documents page by page to ensure that there is nothing that is contrary to the Electoral Law.
