Senator Dino Melaye, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) nominee for governor of Kogi on November 11th, has vowed to abolish racial or religious discrimination in state governance.
Melaye declared that if elected, he will rule the state with the fear of God during the governorship campaign’s big finale on Thursday at the state party secretariat in Lokoja, the state capital.
Speaking to party supporters, Melaye pledged to industrialize, investigate the state’s abundant mineral resources, and increase domestic revenue from tourism—a move he claimed would draw in investors.

Melaye claimed to be the most experienced, knowledgeable, exposed, and competent of the eighteen candidates vying to become the state’s governor.
“I will govern with the fear of God; I will not be a governor who follows the Muslim faith, a Christian one, an Egbira governor, or an Okun governor,” he declared.
Melaye went on to say that individuals fired by the current administration during the screening process would be brought back and have their outstanding debts fully settled within six months.
“Don’t vote for the small parties that have no keyholders and nothing to offer; this is your chance to break free from the shackles of tyranny,” he continued.
