The attempt to recall the Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Dino Melaye, has failed after the verified signatories to the petition for his recall fell short of requirements.
For the verification exercise to succeed, 50 percent plus one of the signatories had to be verified. But in the exercise held in the senatorial district on Saturday, only 18,742 (5.34%) of the 189,870 of the signatories to the petition for the Senator’s recall were verified by INEC.
