Dino Melaye Reveals Reasons For Choosing Not To Challenge Election Loss in Court

Senator Dino Melaye, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the recently concluded Kogi State Governorship election, has announced his decision not to pursue legal action in response to his electoral defeat.

Melaye said his decision was hinged on the fact that the judiciary has allegedly become an arm of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC

He said this at a media briefing in Abuja on Wednesday.

He emphasized that it is now commonly understood that, within the current administration, the judiciary has transitioned from being the “last hope” to being perceived as the “lost hope” for the common man

Melaye pointed out the disheartening situation where the judiciary, without taking action, witnessed members of the ruling party openly boasting about their control over the judiciary during election campaigns.

Kanyi Daily recalls that the Chairman of All Progressive Congress in Kogi State, Abdullahi Bello had mocked Dino Melaye, the People’s Democratic Party candidate in the recent off-cycle election.
