Adelani Adepegba, Abuja

The Police authorities have vowed not to leave Senator Dino Melaye’s residence until they arrest him.

The Police have subsequently deployed over 50 additional policemen around Melaye’s residence located on 11, Sangha Street, Off Mississippi, Maitama, FCT.

Findings indicate that the Police might storm the building and forcefully arrest the lawmaker who had holed up in the house since last Friday.

Our correspondent who is at the scene observed many policemen taking positions around the mansion.

The Police said the lawmaker representing Kogi West at the National Assembly was wanted for the alleged shooting of one Sgt. Danjuma Saliu, attached to 37 Police Mobile Force while on stop-and-search duty along Aiyetoro Gbede, Mopa Road in Kogi State.

The operatives had, last Saturday, cut off power supply to Melaye’s mansion as part of strategies to make him uncomfortable so that he could surrender for arrest, but the senator has so far remained adamant.

The Force spokesman, Jimoh Moshood, stated that Melaye had repeatedly spurned several invitations asking him to report for investigation into the case of attempted culpable homicide.

He noted that the operatives would not leave the lawmaker’s residence without arresting him.

hmmmmmmm

How is it possible that Dino Melaye with his armed escorts would be the one to shoot a police officer on the road? I thought they said blocks were illegal.

Why would a lawmaker's car with FGN special number plate be subjected to stop and search? Is that not a targeted event?

I just hope they don't assassinate Dino Melaye, he has been a thorn in APC's flesh. Although he's an irresponsible politician just like many of them so I really don't support him, but APC is a desperate party.

The house na shrine?? Make dem enter na..

That is very commendable from the Nigeria police force, DINO MELAYE must be arrested. No retreat arrest must be done.

When you have Solar Power at home, cutting off public electricity makes no difference.

Sniff him out. This would've been done long ago. He mustn't see the election as a free man.
