The senator representing Kogi
West senatorial district, Senator Dino Melaye, has dismissed the insinuation
that he was planning to leave the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) for the All
Progressive Congress, (APC), saying “I remain in PDP, PDP is my home, PDP is my
home.
Melaye who was elected in last
Saturday’s election for the second time, said he would have ordinarily ignored
the rumour adding that, “it does not make sense that a man who went into an
election as an opposition yet for the love and support of the good people of
Kogi West defeated the state might”.
In a statement signed by his
Media Assistant, Gideon Ayodele, on Friday, the Kogi West Senator said it is
laughable that he would join a government that has for three and a half years
impoverished the people of Kogi State, which he noted has led to several loss
of lives.
The statement reads, “We want to
simply state that there is no relationship between light and darkness.
Distinguished Senator Dino Melaye stands for light and the APC led government
in Kogi state represents darkness.
“It is laughable to imagine that
Senator Dino will join a government that has for the past 3 years and half
impoverished the good people of Kogi state which has led to several loss of
lives.
“However, their rumour has
further shown how relevant Senator Dino Melaye is the kogi state political
stage and Nigeria at large.
“We want our teaming supporters
to know that it is the making of the APC supporters and it’s a wish that cannot
be realised.
“We also want to assure our
supporters and the PDP family that we are prepared to continue to fight for the
liberation of our people in Kogi state and this struggle is a struggle of no
retreat no surrender”.
