Police storm Dino Melaye’s house, seek senator’s arrest | Nairalaw

Armed policemen, on Friday afternoon, stormed the Maitama
residence of Senator Dino Melaye, seeking to arrest him.

The policemen, who came in about five vehicles, arrived the
residence at about 12:30 and later gained access into the senator’s
house.

The policemen used two of their vehicles to block the gate of
the senator’s house, with some of the operatives outside.

One of the policemen in mufti, who approached journalists, said
they were there to arrest the Kogi senator.

“We are here to arrest Dino,” the policeman said, but failed to
respond when journalists sought to know why they wanted to arrest
the senator.

He simply told journalists to find out from the spokesman of the
Nigeria Police Force, Jimoh Moshood.

The policeman told journalists, especially cameramen, to stop
recording them.

Dino had, few days ago, alleged that the Inspector General of
Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris, had plans to poison him to death.
