The
Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has received signatures of
about 188,588 voters from electorates in Kogi West Senatorial District,
demanding the recall of Dino Melaye from the Senate.
The law requires 50 per cent of
voters in an area sign to recall a lawmaker.
Mr. Melaye has since condemned the
move, saying it would fail and was being sponsored by Kogi Governor Yahya
Bello.
According to Punch Newspaper,
the signed documents were contained in six bags alongside other documents and
were submitted to INEC’s headquarters in Abuja on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Rotimi
Oyekanmi, INEC Chairman’s spokesperson, said he did not have details of the
submission.
“I am not sure who they gave the
signatures, I have to be certain before I make comment. But I heard they came,”
Mr. Oyekanmi said.
Also, Dino Melaye was videoed saying Kogi governors actions in the state are satanic. See video below:
