Senator Dino Melaye has celebrated the rejection of an aide to the president Lauretta Onochie as a national commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Igbere TV reports.

Chairman of the Senate committee on INEC Kabiru Gaya had said in his report on Tuesday that Mrs Onochie did not satisfy the provisions of the federal character principles as there is already a serving national electoral commissioner from Delta State Mary Agbamuche-Mbu who was screened and confirmed by the eighth Senate.

Gaya (APC, Kano South) disclosed that the petitions against Onochie were against the backdrop of her involvement in politics and alleged membership of a political party.

The Senate at the committee of the whole subsequently voted against her nomination.

Reacting to the resolution, Melaye who is a former Kogi West lawmaker and member of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said in an Instagram post,

“Lauretta Onochie is out. Character is everything.”

Onochie’s nomination had raised dust among the opposition and political observers. INEC commissioners are required by law to be non-partisan.

During her appearance at the Senate last week, Onochie said she stopped being a member of the All Progressives Congress after the 2019 elections. However, she had sworn to be an APC member in a court affidavit.

Aboniki or panadol extra, which one should I gift you?

Dino Melaye, Tu Quoque?

You are not exempted

Two wrong people

All of una na d same

Onochie is somehow mischievous and childish but Dino shouldn't gloat because he isn't any better ...

Character is not everything.
Capacity is everything.

My mechanic is a chronic womanizer who lies, but he does the job.
In this case, I don't care about his character, my only concern is his capacity to get the job done.

Pot calling kettle black

Well said

Wonders shall never end indeed. Even Dino Maleye wants to have a say too. Even a chronic thief in person of Dino maleye thinks he has a say too. He together with his goons in the PDP stole our nations wealth and rendered most of our youths jobless, he stole away the future of our unborn children. People like him are suppose to be locked away for good.

Dino is right. Character is everything!

If it was Bashir Ahmed that was nominated, trust me he’s likely to have scaled the screening.

But drunkard Onochie went about insulting everybody; young and old. She drew our ire and that’s why we insisted she should never be confirmed.

Did u yourself posses a good character, charity begins at home. (Dino)

Yes I agree

Buhari cabal is just embarrassing this woman, but she thinks she is enjoying corridor of power, those who didnt work half of what she did are enjoying goodie of offices while cabal are just making her tool to fight her own people and her own religion.

I bilv by sending her name to Senate it was delibrate ploy to dangling juice before her and refuses to let her taste the goodie.

She is just a tool of ridicules and nothing more.

Jega

Kettle calling pot black.
All of them are the same

...and Dino has the character?

Did u yourself posses a good character,yes or no. (Dino)

I just shake my head

She has been used and dump

When you are a southerner defending this government you are always going to be used as collateral damage when the chips are down eg adeosun

Unless you are a Northern Muslim like pantami and the disgraced Northern nominees of Buhari to icc and wto
