Prophet Ajabor wrote:

“Prophecy: Dino Melaye should make peace with minister Nyesom Wike if he wants to become governor.
“I am that little boy who is sitting on the prophetic table. Save this post.”

It would be recalled that in April, Wike said Melaye does not have what it takes to be governor. However, Melaye replied by revealing that the Rivers PDP chieftain sponsored his governorship campaigns in the past.

Melaye therefore said it was contradictory for Wike who funded his governorship campaign to say in 2023 that he is not fit to be governor of Kogi state.
