Guyman01:
To give himself any good chance of winning Dino needs to concentrate on how to match Yahaya Bello thuggery for thuggery, ballot box snatching for ballot snatching, dig and cut all the roads leading to APC strongholds with caterpillars because Yahaya Bello believes that INEC is useless and BVAS real time transmission of results is deception concocted by Prof Mahmud last year

Exact same thoughts.

buharibanjo:
Igala people don suffer 🤣

Igala people are greedy , they asked them to step down for one candidate but they refused. Their vote got splitted. If you add their votes together it is more than Dino's vote.

mistilink1:
They're proud, arrogant, garrulous, greedy. Even when their land is nothing to write home about. If you are from Kogi State, you will agree with me on how other regions of the state suffered in the hand of Igalas during their inglorious reign in power.
As God liveth,they will beg and cry for power to return back to them, maybe in 32 years to come.

Funny enough it is ebiras that are reputed to be all these you accused igala of.
And Yahaya Bello even reinforced such reputation with his inglorious reign

KanuSE:


This Nigeria's problem right here, tribalism over merit/credibility.

Inú ìyà lema kúsí gbogbo yín.

Shior!

Back to sender

Bringbackmandat:
who is ododo. Even you know that Dino is more popular than that useless unknown ododo

Both Ododo and Dino will lose. Ebiras will rally round Ododo, Okuns will rally round Dino, while Igalas, the majority tribe, will rally round their own in another party.

VTJN:
Lol

You dey always support losers. APC will trash PDP in Kogi. Na walk over for APC in imo and Kogi state

This don write results as usual. Why do you people heavily believe in rigging

zeenaman:

Do you think that is a right calculation? I'm thinking he should pick a popular Ebira like Natasha that can help him split Ebira votes. Igalas are already angry with Bello and his candidate, they may have no choice than to vote PDP.

Natasha will never take Deputy Governor, and especially not when there is another Ebira on Governorship ticket. Ebira will bone her completely. Why pick deputy when you can pick governor.

Dino only hope is to pick Igala warlord to catalyze Igala hatred.

IfnobeGod20:
Firstly, I would have loved that Dino wins but he has so many Mountains to climb.
1. Uncoordinated Kogi West. Their self interest always manifest when it comes to political issue. They are good backstabbers while the other zones often speak in one voice.
2. Penetration of Igala land because their population is more than Kogi West and Kogi Central combined together.
3. Ready to face the main party thuggery to thuggery and tout to tout. The type of politics they are playing in Kogi for 8 years now, is the unusual one. He must be ready to face them face to face. Imo, Kogi and Rivers have their special political template that is quite different from the normal.
Secondly, he must leave childish attitude and behave maturely. Meaning he must start carrying himself like excellent man that desire the post of Excellency.
If he can do the above. He may make the difference.

Only God knows what you smoked to make you that number 2

Congratulations to Dino Melaye.

O boy ,which kind names kogi people.dey bear,yamayama names

Kogi have no inferiority complex and we believe our names are as good as European names.

Kogi people are proud of their African heritage and it is not our fault that you have SLAVE mentality

Eriokanmi:
They're still there. Igala people gave it to Dino. He got most of his votes from them, being the largest ethnic group in the state. Only Okun people couldn't have got him the ticket. It would have been the Okun's turn now, had Abubakar Sudu not died cos his running mate would have succeeded him. The reassurance came during Bello's reelection bid , Smart Adeyemi, Yahaya Bello's deputy, Onoja said okun would be considered, should they support bello when the people said he did nothing in their region and bello had failed woefully, generally.

Onoja fell out with Bello along the journey into their 2nd term. He was visibly absent in almost 4 years in the Bello-led administration, according to a friend who is serving in Bello's government. Igala still feels Audu was killed to smite them. If Dino can pick his running mate from among Igala as speculated, not only will the likes of Onoja support him. I don't see Adeyemi supporting Bello's candidate either. If SDM can carry everyone along, it would be an easy win.for him. Bello don spoil ground for the new guy for kogi. Okun and Igala's votes with a little from ebira would take Dino to the Lord Lugard House.

loll... It sounds funny to me when I see people trying to do cerebral analysis of Nigeria election when even the blind and deaf knows the election will become another court project that might end up been thrashed out on technicalities. Bros to be sincere all these permutations and calculations will end up on pages of internet because with what Mahmoud and his minions are doing, it is just sheer waste of time to do political permutation of the off-cycle election. I can categorically tell you that INEC isn't prepared to allow peoples voice and votes to count, with APC at the helms of the affair of the country during the election, the only mandate to INEC will be to deliver Kogi either to teach Dino melaye lesson ( I am sure BAT has him on his bad book) or a way to reward Yahaya Bello.

The truth is we are not ready yet in this country, Mahmoud spectacularly fail the country and I wonder how many years it will take to correct the anomaly. The penchant to rig every election now will become the order if supreme court did not cancel the sham of election conducted on February.

Peson wey dey flaunt him luxzury upandown for social media and yet the road to his village is in deplorable state.
I wish the person reading this is a Kogite and see for yourself how people hate him with DEGREE.

Who is ododo?

Strafudeen:
Better Dino than another ebira muslim.

Some muslims in this country hate justice and peace

You mean you would lock a goat 🐐 in a yam barn because...?

when tugs like Dino Melaye emerges as Aspirant for any position in PDP

just like his father Atifku failed woefully....the closest opponents in APC should start preparing his dance party victory

Aleady...some of his party Leaders have said, he has nothing to offer the people of Kogi

Above all, Gov Bello will be a Berlin Wall....to disgrace Melaye....mark my word!

GreyLaw:
As it should be. Who else is as big as he is in PDP in Kogi?

But he lost his senatorial primary ticket. So, I am surprised he clinched this

juman:
Third party may win kogi.

You have moved to kogi. Kogi people will decide

that’s what is paying his bills monthly. He’s APC strategist on nairaland.

Merit123:

Who is Ododo and where does he come from?

Minus killing and electoral fraud, Dino Melaye is the next governor of Kogi State...

Another Ebira man after Yahaya Bello...DOA...

Dino Melaye is APC kryptonite...

Bimpe29:
Dino Vs Ododo.

An El Classico in the Confluence State.

Kogi West Vs Kogi Central.

PDP Vs APC.

Christian Vs Muslim.

Kogi East remain the catalyst.

the thing wey una do for presidential election wey una still dey wail about.

Bello will suppress their votes

crowther15:

He didn't lose jack...

He was up against the presidency, Tinubu and every time God I APC who made sure the election was militarised and remote-controlled...

If there is any person Yahaya Bello doesn't want on the opposing ticket, that person is Dino Melaye...

Igala ideology of putting all head of service in the secretariat and putting only Igala ghost workers is haunting them.

This is where the wahala is coming from. Audu too did it but Wada took it too far.

Okene, adavi and okehi, thats ebira land. I know you wanted to mention ajaokuta and lokoja cos they near ebira land and ebira plenty there😂😂😂. This two places have there indigenous people which are not ebira. Yoruba have kabba, ijumu, yagba east, yagba west, mopa [/quote

Yoruba are actually the owners of Lokoja. Let us be honest please.

Boss we all know that both Igalas and Ebiras have this reputation.

Bringbackmandat:

All my Kogi friends are saying this is a walkover for APC, they are already celebrating.

This country funny sha. All these guys wan just steal more money. Just read about Dibu ojerinde again now. Man stole crazily while in jamb. Massive stealing and hyn pikin dey win election. Nawa for this Nigeria

zeenaman:


Incredible. Igala the largest tribe in Kogi now becoming a minority. They abused power though, karma is a bitch

igaka tribe is a minority tribe same as ebira . Majority tribes are only the Yoruba Igbo Hausa. Tribe wey no pass 2 million people you dey call them large. Wetin u go call Yoruba wey pass 50 Million people??
