The Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Senator Dino Melaye, on Friday described the ruling of the Kogi West National Assembly/State Assembly Election Petitions Tribunal nullifying his victory in the March 22 election and ordering a fresh election as a total miscarriage of justice.
While reacting to the judgement, the Senator said his legal team was already studying it, adding that he will appeal against it.
Senator Melaye said that he was confident that the Appeal Court will upturn the judgement of the lower tribunal.
According to him, the judgement was full of importation of information that was alien to the case.
Melaye said, “I have confidence in the Appeal Court to right the wrongs as contained in the pronouncements of the judgement”.
He added, “I also want to tell those jubilating that their jubilation will be short-lived while appealing to my teeming supporters to remain calm as their mandate is safe and secure and cannot be taken through any mischievous means.
“However, our legal team is already working on appealing the judgment and I assure all that justice will prevail” Melaye concluded.
