2023: Atiku's Head Is Totally Empty- Fani-Kayode Replies Melaye Over Comment On Tinubu

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, Femi Fani-Kayode has berated former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, for disturbing the collation of presidential election results at the National Collation Centre in Abuja.

Naija News reported that Melaye, who is the agent of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), had walked out of the national collation centre alongside Labour Party (LP) agents and some other parties.

Melaye and other agents pulled out of the exercise after insisting that results uploaded to the Results Wewing portal (iReV) of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) must be displayed for transparency before the exercise could continue.

But the INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, rebuffed the attempt to disrupt the collation exercise and cautioned the former lawmaker not to be ‘disruptive’

Reacting to the development in a tweet on Monday, Fani-Kayode said Melaye and the PDP standard bearer, Atiku Abubakar, would be humiliated at the end of the exercise.

The spokesman of the APC PCC added that the election results would be announced whether Melaye was at the collation center or not.

Fani-Kayode, who is a former Minister of Aviation, asked Melaye to tell Atiku to accept his defeat in shame and travel back to Dubai forever.

He tweeted: “Walking out does not mean you will escape disgrace at the polls. Whether you are there or not the results will be announced.

“You have LOST. Face it. Tell ur boss to lick his wounds, bury his head in shame & go back to Dubai forever. Stop crying like a baby that has soiled itself.”
