The embattled Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District Senator Dino Melaye has written the Inspector General Of Police, Idris Ibrahim on an alleged threat to his life. The Senator who had earlier alleged that the Inspector General of Police directives on the immediate withdrawal of security details attached to private individuals and companies was targeted at him, wrote the IGP through his lawyer, Rickey Tarfa. The letter which was dated 20th March 2018 was to bring the alleged threat to the knowledge of the Police authority and was titled: “A CALL FOR YOUR URGENT ATTENTION IN THE WILFUL HARASSMENT, OPPRESSION, POLITICAL VICTIMIZATION AND THREAT TO THE LIFE OF SENATOR DINO MELAYE”
The Senator who has been in loggerhead with the Governor of the State, Mr Yahaya Bello and former Senator representing Kogi West, Smart Adeyemi and even the Chief of Staff to the Governor, Mr Onoja have been having it rough of late, as just after his case of stopping his re-calling process was turned down by the Appeal Court, the Police paraded a notorious kidnapper, gunrunner and political thug one Kabiru Saidu popularly known as ‘Mr Osama’ which he was alleged to have used to stage his won Assassination plot. Also, the Independent National Electoral Commission has also fixed April 27th, 2018, as the date to kick-start his re-calling process after they got the nod from the Appeal Court. Clearly, Senator Dino is not having it smooth going to the 2019 elections with all these wahala…lol
