President Muhammadu Buhari’s
Personal Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie has mocked Senator Dino
Melaye over his defeat at the just concluded supplementary election for Kogi
West Senatorial District.
Olayinde Lawal, the returning officer of the election, declared Adeyemi winner
at the end of the rerun on Saturday.
The APC candidate got 88,373
votes to defeat Dino Melaye of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), his closest
challenger, who polled 62,133 votes.
Reacting, Onochie on Twitter
wrote, “Contrary to their wishes, @MBuhari is still very much alive.
“He’s still the leader of our
great nation. Dino Melaye on the other hand, is now an Ex-Senator going by the
results coming from Kogi West.
“He can now face his acting
career and his pending criminal charges.”
Melaye, who describes himself as
“Unapologetic Carpet Crosser” on his Twitter handle @DinoMeIaye, has vowed to
approach the courts for redress.
He said, “What we have as result
is fraud… a major fraud. The November 16 election was a fraud that would not
stand.”
