Kogi State Senator, representing Kogi West Senatorial district., Senator Dino Melaye, appears to have taken a swipe at his political party, describing the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) convention as a joke.

Happy to be away from the joke going on in Naija today. https://t.co/mAczeRjrIh

Although he did not mention the APC, the ruling party is holding its national convention today, where a new set of party officials are expected to be elected.
Mr Melaye has repeatedly criticised the APC, the party on whose platform he was elected as senator. He recently requested to be allowed to sit with the opposition PDP during plenary.
