Concerned Kogi Registered Voters
(CKRV) has filed a suit at a Federal High Court in Abuja seeking to stop the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from commencing verification
of signatures collected in order to recall Senator Dino Melaye, representing
Kogi West at senate.
Addressing newsmen yesterday in
Abuja, convener of the group, Olowosayo Gabriel Sunday, claimed that names of
dead persons and people who did not reside in the district appeared on the
recall register submitted to INEC.
The applicants, who frowned at
the 188,000 signatures which were submitted to INEC, noted that while 111,534
voted in the general election in Kogi West, the total number of registered
voters in Kogi West was 360,098.
According to a copy of the motion
which was made available to newsmen, INEC, which was the first respondent, was
sued alongside eight other respondents, comprising some aides of Governor
Yahaya Bello and state lawmakers from the senator’s district.

Why not wait for INEC to do their investigation instead of all these noise.
