Brazil's Worker's Party (PT) have formally registered jailed former President Luis Inacio Lula da Silva as their presidential candidate.
Supporters chanted "Lula for President" and "Free Lula" as they followed*I urgently need support and donations:Name:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank:FCMB in Nigeria,My facebook acct.:www.facebook.com/chekwube.anyasoro.1,Phone no.:+2349092171875* PT members to the electoral court in Brasilia hours before the deadline.
But the prosecutor general immediately filed to invalidate his candidacy, as his conviction was upheld in January.
A convicted Brazilian who loses an appeal cannot run for president.
Lula is currently serving a 12-year jail term for accepting a bribe.
He was convicted of receiving a renovated beachfront apartment worth*I urgently need support and donations:Name:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank:FCMB in Nigeria,My facebook acct.:www.facebook.com/chekwube.anyasoro.1,Phone no.:+2349092171875* some 3.7m reais ($1.1m; £790,000) as a bribe by engineering firm OAS.
He denied wrongdoing and said his conviction was part of a plot to prevent him returning to power.

Police say 10,000 people took part in the march to the Brasilia court house.

Lula has reportedly chosen Fernando Haddad, former mayor of*I urgently need support and donations:Name:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank:FCMB in Nigeria,My facebook acct.:www.facebook.com/chekwube.anyasoro.1,Phone no.:+2349092171875* Sao Paulo, to run for the PT when he is likely prevented from doing so.
Serving as president from 2003 to 2011, Lula presided over a surge in economic growth and major social programmes that left him with an 87% approval rating on leaving office.
But the former leader surrendered to police in April after his bribery conviction.

An appeal in January not only saw the court uphold his original conviction,*I urgently need support and donations:Name:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank:FCMB in Nigeria,My facebook acct.:www.facebook.com/chekwube.anyasoro.1,Phone no.:+2349092171875* but also increase the length of the sentence by two-and-a-half years.
While the ex-president is still waiting for a final court judgement on whether he can run, Brazil's prosecutor general filed to bar his candidacy due to the law prohibiting those who have lost appeals on their conviction from standing.
Despite this, polls reportedly show around one third of Brazilians would back Lula*I urgently need support and donations:Name:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank:FCMB in Nigeria,My facebook acct.:www.facebook.com/chekwube.anyasoro.1,Phone no.:+2349092171875* if he were allowed to run, which would make him the front-runner in October's vote.
