Former Bayelsa State Governor Sylva Bails

FORMER BAYELSA STATE GOVERNOR, CHIEF TIMIPRE SYLVA.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 27, (THEWILL) – Chief Timipre Sylva has gone into hiding, according to very credible reports reaching THEWILL.

The embattled former governor who was sacked Friday morning alongside four other governors bailed on his aides in the wee hours of Friday.

Security sources say Sylva and his family who were in Abuja until a few hours ago have skipped town for an unknown destination.

“We are looking for him, he told his security detail to wait for him in their convoy early this morning. No one has seen him since then. We are looking for him,” one source told THEWILL.

THEWILL had previously reported that Sylva was the target of the Supreme Court judgement to enable the Presidency prosecute him for various offences ranging from corruption to treason.
