Silva's Comment on Female Judge: PDP Youths Blow Hot - Say Minister is not decent enough to hold a public office.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been urged to sack the Minister of State for Petroleum, Timipre Sylva over his comment on a female judge.

Recall that Sylva while featuring as a guest on a programme on Channels Television on Thursday, the 14th day of November, 2019, had made comment on the judgment of the Federal High Court sitting at Yenegoa wherein the Court delivered a judgment in the case filed by Senator Heineken Lokpobri and cancelled the Bayelsa State APC Primaries.

Sylva, the former governor of Bayelsa State had made some indicting and defamatory remarks about the person of the Honourable Judge of the Federal High Court who presided over the case.

Reacting to Silva's comment, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) youths, under the aegis of PDP South South Youth Vanguard, said that the Minister is not decent enough to hold a public office.

Calling on President Buhari to sack the Minister, the PDP youths, in a statement by its National Chairman, James Efe Akpofure called on the female judges across the country to rise up against intimidation from people like Silva.

The group added that Silva should be made to face the music by being sanctioned by the President.

The Youth Vanguard noted that a woman, who rose to the position of a judge should be commended and not insulted.

They said that Silva should be used as an example to others, who are fond of Insulting women unjustly, adding that if the Minister is not sanctioned, others will follow his footstep.

They group also called on the international community not only to revoke his visa, but to place a travel ban on him.
