Kogi Guber: Sen Melaye Rejects Claim On Collecting N3bn From Dangote, Atiku 

The PDP governorship candidate, Dino Melaye, has denied reports that he has received N3 billion from the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and businessman Aliko Dangote for the Kogi elections.

Melaye refuted the allegations, stating that they are false and unfounded.

Melaye made the disclosure at a dinner hosted by his campaign organization in Abuja.

He attributed the allegations to his political opponents, who he said were trying to smear his name and derail his campaign.

According to Melaye, the claim that he collected N1 billion from Atiku and N2 billion from Dangote “was fake news peddled by betrayers.

“One of the lessons is that the east now know more than ever before, that they cannot become governor alone. You will have to collaborate with other zones to become governor.

“The second lesson is also for those of us from the west. Next time, we should listen to the words of wisdom from our elders and not from commercialized characters who because of their individual and selfish interests created problems for us.

“Because at the end of the day, what our elders have been saying that this will be the worst (election) for us, is eventually what happened.”
