The President of the Student Union Government of the Kogi State University, Anyingba, Comrade Shaibu has advised the embattled Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District in the Nigerian Senate, Senator Dino Melaye to file a court case against his abortive recall.<\/p>\n

The Student Union leader who alleged that the recall process was forged wants Melaye to address the issue in a competent court.<\/p>\n

According to Shaibu,the recall process as revealed on Channel news by Honourable Olowo Cornelius, who was designated to reveal to the media revealed said “The recall process carried the same signature and the same name for Kogi State Citizens which was not intelligent, enough on their part.”<\/p>\n

He stated further that, “The signature met a fiasco and fewer than 20% was verifiable, which is a ridiculous act. My cousin who died last year appeared on voters’ list.”<\/p>\n

Shuaibu added that the fraudulent attempt to recall the distinguished Senator should be investigated.<\/p>

“It is a punishable offence in Nigeria, and Dino Melaye should not overlook this ridiculous act,” he added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a former lecturer at the Kogi State University, Ayingba, Dr. Williams also said that the alleged attempt on Senator Dino Melaye’s life was his own problem. <\/p>\n

Williams who spoke to newsmen over the embattled Senator’s travails added that the process to recall Melaye was forged.<\/p>\n

Melaye is representing Kogi West Senatorial district in the Upper House of the National Assembly and has been involved in a running battle with the state governor Yahaya Bello who some have accused of being behind Melaye’s ordeal.<\/p>\n
