The Police had a few days ago, announced the senator wanted over his implication in handing over illegal ammunition to some abductors who claimed to be his thugs.
Vanguard newspaper has reported that the SARS’ operatives had entered Kabawa Primary School, Lokoja, venue of the fidau prayers, in efforts to detain Senator Melaye but were amazed as local vigilante men surrounded him and made it difficult for the SARS operatives to get close to him.
Sen. Dino Melaye Melaye who stole the show by raising two fingers in the air on the occasion, to acknowledge cheers from the crowd who hailed him with a loud ovation.
Dino Melaye, after the prayer session, was being escorted by the local vigilante forming a ring around him into the waiting vehicle of the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.
The SARS’ operatives, who later besieged Chief Rasaq Kutepa’s House at the GRA, where the reception was held, were all disappointed to see Dino in the convoy of the Senate President leaving for the late Buba’s House from where they left for Obajana airstrip for a flight to Kastina.
Here are some photos of Dino being welcomed by a senior police officer as he arrived Kogi yesterday.
