National Electoral Commission, INEC, as sacked Senator representing
Kogi West Senatorial District, Dino Melaye was denied access into the
premises of the Commission.

It is alleged that the senator had gone to INEC to submit more petitions.
A camera belonging to one of the Journalists was said to have been
seized but later released when Melaye intervened.
Melaye, who is the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, candidate in the
Kogi West Senatorial rerun election, had last week stormed INEC’s
headquarters where he had presented 21 video and documentary evidence.
