Dino cannot be recalled take it or leave it... Those that append their signature were all paid, YEYE BELLO should pay workers first before sponsoring the recall of a senator

for wia! Meanwhile, can someone tell me wia Dino went wrong. No sentiments. How is the governor better than him? please, if you have been keeping malice because of his showdown with Mrs Tinubu, don't answer me. she got what she asked for. they are the same. she wasn't the only woman there to have made those remarks which indirectly is an insults to those who call him father and husband. she could have be well mannered to avoid what she got

What people need to understand in case of the senator is that the Governor of the state is using an avenue to fight him because of his talking mood. But is out of the sit or not he still remain big guy .sure

This recall is baseless and filled with illegal manipulations. Dino my man, this is what I do when I come into this kinda thread that's not in your favour....

If you have any thought process you will know that the Inec needs to verify every single signature against the bio data they have in their own data base and with the clumsy way the Kogi state govt paid all those people just to get them to sign there is no way the verification can go well except INEC want to hire Google to bring in its superior classified text to data optical recognition technology to help out ...this case is dead on Arrival but the good thing is that people have made small money from the signing jamboree

Who cares if Dino is recalled or not. What good has his representation brought to his constituency and Nigeria at large?

Records are meant to be set. Dino is on the verge of setting record, my friend.

This whole drama will end in the thrash or perhaps result in a lengthy court process at the benefit of the academia. My reason is simple, from the 2015 results only ONLY 111,534 VOTED IN ELECTION BUT 188, 588 “SIGNED” PETITION FOR RECALL. Likewise Dino won the election by a very small margin; Melaye polled only 41,120 votes while his closest opponent, Smart Adeyemi, who ran on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) but is now a member of APC, had 38,148 votes.Adeyemi challenged the outcome of the exercise at the election petition tribunal which ordered a recount. The recount showed that INEC gave Melaye more than 2,000 invalid votes. But it upheld his victory on the grounds that the number of invalid votes did not substantially alter the final results.Now, the sum of votes both candidates and five other top candidates had is 111,534. But it is doubtful that the number of actual voters in the election is way less than the 188,588 which trooped out for the “recall balloting”. (thecable.ng, 2017)

Looking at this argument , i feel what the people of Kogi west should be agitating for, is how their governor will pay the backlog of 15 months salary that the state government owes. Kogi state university has been closed for over 5 months now...I heard the strike was suspended today ( unconfirmed).So what this primarily means is that, Dino is not their problem rather its their clueless and opportunist governor who rode to stardom by virtue of Audu Abubakar's death. APC is a league of desperate politicians with no plans for Nigeria. Honestly they have recked so many businesses and Etisalat is a very good example.

oga sir,the issue on ground is the recall of dino nelaye and not whether yahaya has paid salaries or not.let them recall dino first,then they can think of how to deal with bello.the registered voters are 360,000.188,000 have appended their signature which is in line with what the recall requirements stipulates.how the signaturez were gotten is immaterial as far as they tally with the signatures on inec register.aftall,not all those that voted for dino were genuine voters.down dino,up apc

I have said it severally that most often Nigerian politics deh be me like nollywood... If sarki can be a free man today how much more Dino's case abegi make una stop confusing Nigerians .... This won't divert my attention from knowing we have no president

GEJ travel they would wail like a dying dog now what is happening a president in a London sick bay and no one is asking for his resignation, no one is complaining rather they keep pooling out one drama to another while counting down to 2019 not even thinking of national development and how to better the lives of over 200 million citizens every now and then a common criminal is paraded and prosecuted while they the major criminals are celebrated and remain untouchable. Their actions and inactions has pushed many good citizens indulging into negative vices... I love Nigeria but hate the leaders and the leadership system. Hypocrites... Agents of tribal decadence bunch of drama kings called leaders..


In BIAFRA I stand.


Ok...Let's forget about the name BIAFRA cos it seems the name is one of the major problem facing her actualization let's have it this way.....

NORTHERN NIGERIA....AND....SOUTHERN NIGERIA

I think it's more reasonable this way...after all the world had experienced likes of such countries eg KOREA. Hence the choice of any citizen to choose where he wishes to belong either the south or north.

Hahahahah you the last point is what is actually what's getting to y'all, his only crime is his support and role he played in the emergence of Saraki as SP .. For your info all senators spend 90 percent of the constituency funds on themselves and that includes Tinubu wife and know Dino makes most of his money from legislative gangsterism and racketeering which is committed by most committees in the Senate

This gentleman below, senatordave1 has answered your question. He reiterated the opinion of the Kogi people and the media. I am sure these opinions are not wrong. I am no fan of Nigerian politicians. I am pro-good governance.

I was beginning to like you, but you proved repulsive and questionable. If you knew Dino so well, supporting him makes you partner in reprehensible behaviours, whereas you are supposed to reprimand. With your revelation, Dino does not deserve to be people's representative. The recall is in order.

Well, if u check the 2 section u quoted, all the steps highlghted are in it...verification of signature , referendum etc. All the the author did was to break it down for us laymen...kogi gov should pay salaries instead of this wild goose chase
ninetiethcrown7:


most of the steps mentioned are not provided for in the constitution...

the constitution states, and i write this verbatim.

69 A member of the Senate or of the House of Representatives may be recalled as such a member if-

69(a) there is presented to the chairman of the independent national Electoral Commission a petition in that behalf signed by more than one-half of the persons registered to vote in that members constituency alleging their loss of confidence in that member; and which signatures are duly verified by the independent national electoral commission; and

69(b) the petition is thereafter, in a referendum conducted by the Independent national Electoral Commission within ninety days of the date of reciept of the petition, approved by a simple majority of the votes of the persons registered to vote in that member's constituency.


all in all according to the constitution only two steps are shown.

In time like this, u will see people coming up with the fact that he is controversial. No doubt he is, but he is also d only Nigeria Senator so far dat have stood a ground in fighting for the right of civil servants and students in kogi state to be precise. No Kogi loving person will support d move to recall him. Bello should pay civil servants and make d interest of people a priority before spending funds unnecessarily in a bid to recall Dino.
Bello won't succeed in dis , d same way he didn't succeed in the attack plot against my honorable senator.... #Sen_Dino_Melaye.

You might call this witch hunting, but I personally think that Dino denigrated his office and was in many forms childish. Seems to be uneducated with so called 7 degrees.

He totally forgot about this route, thinking only tribunal can oust him.

This is a lesson to others, and mysteriously there ain't others behaving like him.

To manipulate this one now go hard as Saraki comot Dino enter.

Meanwhile, abeg run away from plastic rice.

Bunch of yes men. So you are dancing believing that Dino will be removed abi? I am not from Kogi but the same people who forged these signature will be the ones to sign other signatures against those already signed. Why are some of you gullible forget so easily that this country is the actual zoo?
