“I gave delegates anointing oil to vote for me” - Melaye on how he won Kogi guber primaries
SHARE

The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) governorship candidate ahead of the Kogi state election Dino Melaye has said that he gave delegates anointing oil to vote for him during the recently held primaries

The PDP chieftain made the disclosure on Channels Television’s Politics Today debunking claims that delegates were being bribed with money running into thousands of dollars for votes.

The former representative of the Kogi West Senatorial District said he however gave those that voted for him anointing oils.

His words: “Anyway, I am not a staff of the EFCC or ICPC and I wouldn’t know if there was money but if at my level I cannot finance a primary then there is a problem somewhere. 

“But definitely, God bankrolled me, I bank with the Almighty God. “I gave them anointing oil and it did the magic. I just told you that I believe in Philipian 4:19; that God shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. And I am telling you that he did it.”
