Controversial politician and former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, has reacted to the signing of the Electoral Act Amended Bill into law.
Naija News reports that President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday signed the Electoral Act Amendment Bill 2021 into law.
The signing was held at the Council Chambers of the Presidential Villa, Abuja at about 12:30 pm in the presence of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, Mahmood Yakubu; President of the Senate, Ahmed Lawan, among others.
Reacting via his Twitter page on Monday, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain mocked the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its members for failing to commend the President for signing Electoral Act 2022.
The former federal lawmaker said President Buhari has signed the ruling party’s “political obituary”.
He wrote: “Wait ooooo l never see one person in APC commending Mr. President for signing Electoral Act 2022. Oga don sign their political Obituary. Odabo APC...”

PDP Primaries: You Will Be Shocked – Wike Fires Atiku
Meanwhile, Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has lambasted former Vice President Atiku Abubakar for expressing confidence in winning the PDP presidential ticket.
The Rivers State governor was reacting to Atiku’s comment after a meeting with ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo and the Alake of Egbaland in Ogun State on Saturday.
Atiku had told newsmen that he would declare his intention to run for the 2023 presidential election after meeting with those that mattered in the political scene.
In a statement on Sunday by his media aide, Kelvin Ebiri, Wike said the outcome of the PDP presidential primary will be surprising.
According to the governor, the former vice-president went too far with his comment.
He also warned politicians and party members to resist making divisive utterances as the PDP pushes to reclaim power in 2023.This article was originally published on Nigeria News
