Hospitalised Dino Melaye on Sunday thanked his constituents for rejecting
attempts to recall him from Senate,
saying evil will never triumph.
The Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) declared in the early hours of Sunday that the recall
exercise on Saturday had failed after electorate overwhelmingly sat at home.
At least 51 percent of voters are
required to verify their signatures for the recall process to move to the next
stage, but only five percent of registered voters turned out.
Mr Melaye spoke from the National
Hospital where he had been receiving treatment since Tuesday after he
reportedly jumped out of a moving police vehicle and sustained injuries.
“Thank you my people. God bless
you all. Thank you for the confidence reposed on me. I will not let you down. I
will always stand by the truth and the people at all times. God bless Kogi
West,” Mr Melaye said in a Twitter update an hour ago.
“Every lie has an expiry date.
Forces of evil will never triumph over forces of light. God is with us,” he
added.
