notifying him that it has received a petition from his constituents
numbering over 188,000 eligible voters in Kogi West senatorial distric

“The Commission has formally acknowledged the receipt of the
petition to the petitioners’ representatives and has conveyed a letter
notifying Senator Melaye of our receipt of the petition,” Mallam Haruna, an INEC National Commissioner had said in the statement.

details of verification process of all the signatories to the petition
to confirm if they are indeed eligible voters in Dino Melaye’s
constituency.
Should Dino Melaye’s recall finally succeed, he would be the first senator ever recalled in Nigeria’s history.
