Following yesterday’s attack on a member of
the Kogi state House of Assembly, Senator Dino Melaye, has called on
the acting president, Yemi Osinbajo, to declare a state of emergency in
Kogi state as the state might soon be thrown into Anarchy. Reacting to
the incident via his Facebook page, Dino described the state governor,
Yahaya Bello, as an economic cankerworm and social scavenger. His post
reads…..

“The draconian Idi Amin approach to governance Yahaya Bello today
as displayed his criminally minded hooligans and hired killers in
usurping the legislative powers and priviledges of the paliament is a
clear manifestation of satanism. The unwarranted attack on Hon. Friday
Sani Makama shall not be swept under the carpet. We are not in a banana
republic. It is manifestly clear now that the acting President must
declare a state of Emergency in Kogi State before Anarchy becomes Total.
The economic cankerworm and social scavenger called Bello must be tamed
before he finishes spending the little political capital left for APC
in Kogi. We must not all keep quiet and allow this Stranger destroy the
labour of genuine APC members in Kogi. We will not allow him to take us
back to Egypt. We must rescue Kogi NOW!!!!. – Dino Melaye”.
