Meanwhile, the politician earlier claimed God bankrolled his primary election which is why he won the PDP ticket.

He said that he gave anointing oil to delegates to drink and it led to the “magic” of him winning the primary election.

He stated this while appearing on a Channels TV programme ‘Politics Today’ which aired on Tuesday, April 18.

Melaye said: “Anyway, I’m not a staff of the EFCC or ICPC. I won’t know if there was money, but at my level, if I cannot finance a primary, then there is a problem somewhere.

“God bankrolled me, I bank with the Almighty God. I gave my delegates anointing oil for mobilisation and it did the magic.

“I just told you that I believe in Phil’ 4:19, that God shall supply all my needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus, and I’m telling you that He did it.”
