Many people will go to jail over my recall – Senator Dino Melaye explodes


The lawmaker representing Kogi west senatorial district, Senator Dino Melaye, has warned that many people will land in prison, over the move to recall him from the upper legislative chamber.

Melaye stated this while answering questions from Seun Okinbaloye, anchor of Politics Today, a daily programme on Channels Television.

When he was asked about the reports that files of signatures of voters in his district had been submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Melaye said: “I continue to laugh at their efforts which I know is in futility. The whole exercise is a comedy of errors.

“Nobody should take it seriously; the whole thing is shrouded in money politics and cannot stand.

“We have discovered names of dead people on the list and a handwriting with similar signatures for several people on petition, the discrepancies are too much and it’s a total fraud.

“And I promise that many people will go to jail for forgery.”

On Wednesday, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), received the signatures.
