As election results trickle in, Adamu Garba, a member of the Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima Grassroots Independent Campaign Council, on Monday said the collation agent of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Dino Melaye’s “rancorous actions” at the National Collation Centre earlier in the day in Abuja, “can be treasonous”.
POLITICS NIGERIA recalls that Melaye challenged the method of collation and result announcement by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) at the National Collation Centre.
During his protest, he called for the results presentation at the polling units to be displayed on the INEC website for comparison with the results presented by the State’s Collation Officers.
The INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, while responding said, “Dino, you are now deliberately being obstructive.”
Dino Melaye need to know that he has to respect our laws. His rancorous actions can be treasonous.
