The Nigerian Senate has reacted to the recall process of one of its members and Senator representing Kogi West, Dino Melaye.
Melaye raised the issue of his recall by his constituents on the floor of the house and accused Kogi state governor, Yahaya Bello of sponsoring the process.
On Tuesday, the Senate via its Twitter handle said it “would also verify the legitimacy of the votes before a conclusion is made.”
The handle also quoted Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, as saying “The recall process is dead on arrival going by the constitution,” adding that “It’s a long process after the verification of votes.”
Meanwhile, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has kicked off recall process of Dino Melaye.
