Senator Dino Melaye on Tuesday said he gave delegates anointing oil to drink to vote for him at the Kogi PDP’s governorship primary which he won.
Melaye said this in an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, adding that God bankrolled him.
Seun Okinbaloye had asked Melaye who bankrolled him to win the primary election and he said God did.
“Anyway, I’m not a staff of the EFCC or ICPC. I won’t know if there was money, but if at my level, if I cannot finance a primary, then there is a problem somewhere but definitely God bankrolled me, I bank with the Almighty God.”
He was also asked how much he gave the delegates to vote for him and he replied: “I gave my delegates anointing oil for mobilisation and it did the magic. I just told you that I believe in Phil’ 4:19, that God shall supply all my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus, and I’m telling you that He did it.”
On the disputed primary election, Melaye contended that he scored 313, making him the clear winner of the primary election.
