Kemi Nelson denies collecting N75m from Remi Tinubu to organize a protest against Dino Melaye

Yesterday Dino Melaye shared a post on his Facebook wall accusing
his colleague, Remi Tinubu had given Women Leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) Kemi Nelson N75million to organize a rally
against him. Reacting to the report, Kemi Nelson said it was false. In a
statement she personally signed and released today July 18th, Nelson
said she doesn’t need to collect money from Remi Tinubu or her husband,
Bola Tinubu whom are her mentors, to stage a protest.

She however confirmed that she and a group of women will be staging a protest in Abuja tomorrow against Dino Melaye

“We are moving to Abuja in full force to be part of this protest against
Melaye for harassing a woman of substance like Senator Tinubu, whose
family paid a huge price for our democracy. Our democracy is still
nascent and we must do everything within our power to protect it. We
should not allow people like Melaye to rubbish what took years and cost
us several lives to achieve. What Melaye did was not just against
Senator Tinubu, but against all women and against our democracy. We will
not behave like Nero, who sleeps, while Rome burns. All right thinking
members of the society must rise against this oppression and an open
insult against women by a man that has done little or nothing for our
democracy. We cannot pretend that nothing is happening, when such a
sacrilege is being committed in our country. With what Melaye has done,
he has been demystified and he should be recalled by his people without
any delay. We cannot keep quiet at this material time. As Professor Wole
Soyinka would say; ‘the man dies, who keeps silent in the face of
tyranny”the statement read
