Senator Dino Melaye has said that the newly elected senator representing Kogi West, Smart Adeyemi is still his ‘Political wife’ and he is going to reclaim his lost mandate.
Mackenzieskyblog recalls that APC Senator Adeyemi scored 88,373 votes to beat PDP Senator Melaye, who got 62,133 votes in the recently concluded Kogi state senatorial election re-run.
Senator Melaye has rejected the outcome of the election, alleging that he was robbed while his life was in danger.
He insisted that there was no election in the senatorial district and gave assurance that he would soon return to the Senate.
Speaking on Channels Tv, he said:
“There was no election, only an attempt to kill me. I will reclaim my mandate because I was voted for.“I want to assure you that Smart Adeyemi would remain my political wife. I started politics before him."
The PDP candidate added that following the initial results collated, he came out victorious but the results was tempered with, and he's certain he will reclaim his mandate in due time.
“I won the election but through the instrumentality of violence and national conspiracy, these have been tampered with. I want to assure Nigerians that it is temporal,” he added.
