30 of my supporters were arrested on order of Bello the Governor- Dino Melaye

Senator Dino Melaye has alleged that Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has released N1.4bn for
the ongoing move by the electorate in his constituency to recall him from the Senate.
Melaye, representing the Kogi West Senatorial District in the upper chamber of the National Assembly, made the allegation in Kabba, Kogi, on Sunday.
He, however, assured his supporters that the recall will fail.
Recall that his convoy was briefly blocked by some protesting youths while he moved around the state.
In a video, the youths clapped and repeatedly chanted “Dino, ole (thief).”

But Melaye, who later led his supporters on a peaceful march around Kabba town, said he was convinced that Bello was behind the move to recall him.

He stated that his achievements in the Senate were huge and as such, the people of his constituency were solidly behind him.
Melaye alleged that 30 of his supporters, who refused to be part of the move were arrested on the order of the governor.
“Quote me, Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, has released N200 million for each of the seven local government areas in my senatorial district to facilitate my recall from the Senate,” Melaye alleged.
