Dino Melaye, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in
the just concluded Kogi governorship election, says no sane person will go to
the tribunal over results of an election.
Melaye spoke on Wednesday during a briefing with the media
in Abuja.
The politician alleged that the judiciary has been
compromised.
“Judiciary is no longer the last hope of the ordinary
people,” he said.
“Why should any
responsible person go to the tribunal? I have lost complete confidence in the
judiciary.”
On November 12, the Independent National Electoral
Commission declared Usman Ododo, candidate of the All Progressives Congress
(APC), as the winner of the Kogi governorship election.
Ododo polled 446, 237 votes to defeat Murtala Ajaka of the
Social Democratic Party (SDP) who came second with 259,052 votes.
Melaye of the PDP scored 46,362 votes.
