By Kabir Akintayo
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governorship aspirant in Kogi state, Senator Dino Melaye, has lambasted Rivers state governor Nyesome Wike, accusing him of lobbying to become Atiku’s Vice in the recently conducted presidential election.
Dino said that Wike called him more than 19 times in just two hours, appealing to him to help beg Atiku Abubakar to make him his Vice President (VP).
In a video obtained by “POLITICS DIGEST”, on Tuesday, Dino said that, Wike is a pretender who begged secretly to become VP, and was pained that the offer was turned down.

He said “Wike is a pretentious character, he’s a liar and has no integrity, no iota of integrity.
“Wike was calling me when Atiku Abubakar was to announce his running mate, I have records and I’ve printed it out, waiting for Wike.
“He called me 19 times in two hours, begging us to convince Atiku to make him his VP, so when I see him lying on Television, saying presidency must go to South, whereas, you was begging us promising us heaven and earth”, Dino said.
Meanwhile, Wike had earlier mocked Dino Melaye over his ambition to contest for Kogi state governor, saying that the Atiku Campaign Spokeperson is not qualified for such position.
Wike described Dino as a joker who cannot be voted for as a governor in a state like Kogi.
