The Senator representing Kogi
West district in the National Assembly, Dino Melaye, has accused the state
governor, Yahaya Bello, of mobilising thugs to stop him from sharing bags of
rice and other relief materials donated to civil servants in the state by the
Senate.
We had earlier reported
that members of the upper legislative chamber donated 1260 bags of rice to
ameliorate the sufferings of civil servants in the state, who were yet to be
paid their salaries for 22 months.
Melaye said the allegation in a
post shared on his Twitter account on Friday.
He tweeted: ”GYB has mobilized
his thugs backed by his paid police men to barricade the entry to Lokoja from
Abuja with the intention of attacking Sen Dino Melaye and the rice meant for
the suffering kogi civil servants.
”Another 10million naira Kogi
State money wasted by Yahaya Bello who was deceived to believe that the rice
donated by the senate is on its way to lokoja this morning. 10 million was then
released to thugs to stop the rice from coming into lokoja and to also
disparage SDM.
”Hahahaha Double wahala for dead
body and the owner of dead body. Olodo governor. ”
