The lawmaker representing Kogi
West senatorial district in the upper legislative chamber of the National
Assembly, Senator Dino Melaye, has reacted to report that over 3,252 members of
the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, have defected to the All Progressives
Congress, APC, in the district.
Those who dumped the PDP in the district included a former Kogi
Commissioner of Water Resources, Tunji Oshanusi, and that of Agriculture, Femi
Abolarinwa.
The decampees were received by
the APC Zonal Chairman, Ropo Asagun at the township stadium in Kabba during the
official flag-off of APC Zonal Rally.
In his reaction, Melaye said the
defection never happened, adding that no one would wish to buy hunger with
their money.
He tweeted, “The lies of 3000
imaginary people decamping from PDP in my constituency.
“Another Tramadol induced lie.
Who will wish to buy hunger with his/her money?
“PDP all the way. My political
wife remain my wife even after 2019.”
