Dino Melaye Is A Clown, Not Fit To Be A Governor – Nyesom Wike
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state, has rubbished Senator Dino Melaye’s alleged governorship ambition, saying the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain does not have what it takes to contest for the Kogi state governorship.
Wike disclose this during a live media chat with selected journalists in Port Harcourt on Tuesday.
He stated, “Why would Kogi people say they would vote for a candidate like Dino? Are we joking?”
“When you give Dino that ticket, you know he won’t win in Kogi State,” Wike said during the parley.
According to Wike, the mere fact that someone is from a place does not equate to electoral success if such a person contests an election.

He said, “Dino does not have what it takes [to be a governor] for crying out loud,” Wike maintained. “He knows me very well. He does not have what it takes to be a governor.”
Wike added that if the PDP gives the ticket to Melaye, the party is doomed to lose the exercise.

He said, “Does it mean now that if the PDP wants to win the election, it would give the ticket to Dino and you say tomorrow that you were rigged when you have already killed yourself?” he wondered.
“Are we saying that we want to win an election or just have a candidate?” he added.
