we the combined people of Kogi west senatorial districts of Kogi State are hereby today to initiate the process of recall for Senator Dino Melaye. We are here to the forms to commence the process from INEC.
Let it be known that all of the Local Government Areas comprising Kogi West Senatorial district are united in our resolve to recall Senator Dino Melaye and remove the disgrace he has become to all of us.
We represent the following LGAs;
1. Yagba West
2. Yagba East
3. Mopamuro
4. Ijumu
5. Kabba-Bunu
6. Koton-karfe
7. Lokoja
We have compiled the key reasons below to show the world that Senator Dino Melaye's recall is not only long overdue, but the right to do in the best interests of Kogi West Senatorial zone, Kogi State, Nigeria, and in fact the institution and dignity of the distinguished Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
ATROCITIES BY SENATOR DINO MELAYE FOR WHICH IS CONSTITUENTS NOW SEEK HIS RECALL.
1. He has deemed it fit to have a constituency office in Kogi West Senatorial zone after two (2) years in Senate, meaning he has no presence in the zone and we have no way of reaching Our Senator.
2. He has no projects initiated in the constituency after 2 years in the Senate.
3. He is known for a continuous flow of irresponsible utterances which embarrass the constituency. For example: 'I will beat... Impregnate you' referring to a fellow Senator and the wife of the National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu.
5. Insulted Former President Olusegun Obasanjo
6. He didn't only insulted Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, but he traveled all the way from Abuja to the Leader's home in Lagos looking for a fight.
7. He insulted the Sultan of Sokoto, calling him an Islamist with a Muslim agenda in Kogi State, simply because His Eminence visited to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of the Government of His Excellency, Governor Yahaya Bello.
8. He routinely insults other leaders, elders and personalities.
9. He persists in portraying our Senatorial district as hostile to the administration of His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari and His Excellency, Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State respectively, for no just cause and not minding the impact on us.
10. He is notorious for conduct unbecoming of a Senator in the way and manner he relates to the Senate President as if he is bodyguard or houseboy instead of a full Senator representing a proud constituency like us..
11. He is enmeshed in a pending certificate scandal - we now believe he lied to us about his academic qualifications, part of the basis of which he sold his candidature.
12. He has brought home no dividends of democracy to our senatorial district.
13. He paints our dear Kogi State bad in the press at every opportunity he gets for his own selfish political interests, many times without even a clear understanding of what he is talking about.
14. His source of wealth is questionable to us and certainly not the model we wish our youth to emulate.
15. He is indecent and deliberately corrupts public morals, for example, he he routinely gives youths in the constituency who approach him for help N1,000 or less, telling them to use it for condoms.
16. He is notorious corrupt and has been caught on video scheming steal the resources of Kogi State among himself and few cronies calling us elephants to be killed and shared.
17. He is an electoral fraud and has been caught on audio offering a judicial Officer money to decide an electoral matter in his favor.
18. He has no respect for Party Democracy, and routinely flouts lawful decisions and directives of even his own party leadership.
Dino Melaye has breached multiple codes of conduct by his deliberate acts and omissions and it is time the authorities acted to enforce the laws and the constitution.
Whether the appropriate authorities act or not, we the people of his constituency who are at the receiving end of his shameful deeds have run out of patience and are resolved to recall and replace him with a decent and people oriented Senator.
We understand the requirements if Section 69 of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 regarding the recall of such a member of the National Assembly and hereby assure everyone that KOGI West senatorial district is United in this and will achieve it.
We hereby give KOGI State Government notice that we are going through with this and if they will not help us, they must also not stop us or put obstacles in our way, in particular, everything the Law requires to be done by the administration in Lokoja in aid of this process must be done with despatch.
God bless Kogi West Senatorial District
God bless Kogi State
