I Didn't Vote During NGF Election..Mimiko

The governor of Ondo State governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko, on Wednesday, challenged his Rivers State counterpart, Rotimi Amaechi, to substantiate his claim that he (Mimiko) voted at the disputed  NGF election by producing the video evidence  of the claim, insisting that Amaechi could not take ecclesiastic refuge for his anti-democratic dispositions.

Reacting to Amaechi’s claim that he (Mimiko) voted at the election, Mimiko said Amaechi should not hide under religion to cover up his anti-democratic dispositions, insisting that nothing stopped Amaechi from proving to the world that he voted by using the same video he had been using to tell the public that there was an election.

“If Amaechi is saying I voted at the election, then I think he should prove it to the whole world that I did.

“I sincerely believe that a process must have led to the declaration of result contained in their few minutes video clip. That later part can’t come in isolation; I challenge him to show the entire  proceedings, including where I voted,” he said.

Berating Amaechi for what he called his anti-democratic disposition, Mimiko, who is the vice chairman of the Jonah Jang-led NGF, said “Amaechi could not take ecclesiastic refuge for his undemocratic dispositions by dragging the church into the forum’s disputed election, as a way of covering up his anti-democratic tendencies, stating further that Nigerians have been deceived for too long.”

Mimiko accused Amaechi of what he termed betrayal of his colleagues.
