Addressing party supporters, Melaye said, “I will not be a Muslim governor, I will not be a Christian governor, I will not be an Egbira governor, I will not be an Okun governor, but I will govern with the fear of God.”
He added: “Don’t vote for the small parties that have no keyholders, without anything to offer; this is your opportunity to free yourselves from the grip of tyranny.”
