Melaye asks INEC to cancel results of 5 Kogi LGAs

Dino Melaye, governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi State, has asked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to cancel election in five Local Government Areas of the state.

Melaye identified the affected Local Government Areas as Okene, Okehi, Ajaokuta, Adavi, and Ogori/Mangogo, claiming the results from the areas were tampered with.

“INEC must cancel the election in the 5 local governments of Kogi-Central. The election in Okene, Okehi, Ajaoukuta, Adavi, and Ogori/Mangogo is a scam coordinated from the highest level of INEC,” Melaye posted on his X account.
