Update: Dino Melaye allegedly jumped out of police vehicle conveying him to Kogi state and ran into the bush
According to The Sun, embattled senator Dino Melaye this afternoon jumped off the vehicle that was conveying him to Kogi state and ran into the thick bush nearby. He was arrested by SARS officers in Abuja this morning and was being transported to Kogi state where he is expected to respond to allegations of sponsoring two assassins.


The assassins were arrested in February and they confessed to have been funded by Melaye.

Melaye who represents Kogi West, is very critical of the Buhari led government as well as very critical of his state governor, Yahaya Bello. He has denied the allegations leveled against him by the suspected assassins, saying they are politically motivated and that he was being framed.

After weeks of reportedly not honoring police invitations, he was prevented from traveling out of Nigeria to Morocco for an official assignment yesterday April 23rd. He was ambushed all through the night. This morning, he surrended to SARS officers in Abuja.
He was being taken to Kogi state when he jumped off the vehicle and fled into the bush.
