LMAO......., Since this is an easy case Dino should just go to court with some SANS and win the case na.
I just pity Dino, he'll be so surprised that his finger prints have been lifted from the gun,the origin/source of the weapon has been known and probably an advanced test has been carried on the barrel that ties expended bullets at a crime scene to that gun.

I am not Dino's fan and I will never be one, these police charges against him are weak that a fresher from the law school or a charge -and- bail lawyer should be able to defend Melaye in court and get freedom for him. I can sport why the police keep losing cases in court. Any intelligent person can quickly see loopholes in the not well written charges.

One of the painters, Theophilus Nuhu, wrote, “On July 24, 2018, my master, Peter, brought one Matthew Anthony and myself from Kaduna State to Kogi for painting work in which he took us to one Senator Dino Melaye’s house at Ayetoro, Gbede area of Kogi State.

Did anyone notice this?
There are youths in Kogi looking for job and income to feed their family. Some are painters by profession and need contracts. Their Senator went to hire youths from Kaduna instead, for a contract in Kogi.

He is employing Kaduna while Kogi is hungry.

Many of your state governors and senators do this. This is why unemployed youths need to hold their local politicians accountable, qnd not Buhari.

Did Buhari tell Dino to go hire painters in Kaduna to travel to Kogi for this contract work? No.

Reality check. Tell your governors, your reps and senators its no longer business as usual. grin

LIKE KEMI ADEOSUN LIKE JUSTICE ONOGHEN? -
So there is a very stupid comparison going on about how Kemi Adeosun the worst finance minister this country has seen ever resigning when her NYSC forgery saga happened. The supporters of the evil government of the day have gathered over night and after sucking blood have come up with a narrative to justify why the current Chief Justice of Nigeria should resign just days to the elections that will liberate this country from cow brains.

They say the opposition did not accept her excuse of ignorance of not knowing her certificate was forged, why should anyone accept the Chief Justice excuse that he thought his asset declaration was up to date. They say the Yorubas did not blow hot when she was sacked why should the south south or south east complain now about their own. See ehn honestly this blind following of Buhari and this government is not a joke anymore. Because I see very intelligent people dropping their brains and wearing cow brains to reason. I now more than ever believe that there are indeed foreign marabouts positioned round this country invoking confusion on these people.

Lets analyse the two situation. KEMI knew her certificate was forged because she was confronted with it but she compromised to keep it silent so she can be minister. When the kasala happened, she was quiet for a long time before the stupid excuse about her not knowing. Took the government close to 3 months or so the let her go, and instead of prosecuting her or handing her over to the relevant authorities, she was quickly escorted to the airport and she escaped out of the country. The government went back to propaganda like nothing happened. Justice Onoghen on the other hand has done his assets declaration which should last till 2020 before a new one is done, opened a dom account after the declaration and thought he will only have to declare that when next he updates his assets declaration. On the 9th a petition was brought, 10th govt reviewed it, 11th he has already been declared a criminal who should resign and go face a Code of Conduct tribunal, same one they did not ask Kemi to go to. How convenient.

If you do not see the script here you are STUPID! (No apologies). This is the only play here to destabilise the judiciary, or plant a pawn who will be of interest to the government in twisting justice. There has been a gradual plot to put everything in place to make sure what happened to GEJ does not happen here this election. This is a do or die for them, and the way they are taking Nigerians for granted is really annoying. If Buhari truly has the people and the numbers by his side why is he worried about the system? So before you call for Justice on Onoghen (Which I agree he should face if found guilty) , bring Kemi back to face the same thing for forging her certificate.

Kemi resign did she not? let Onoghen to resign too

Obviously even if "Mai Gaskiya" brought out his dagger and stabbed someone on the streets of Kubwa there are those that will still hail "Sai Baba", and if you complain they will say kwarapshan is pighting back.

Take judicial note of the precedents of unbridled impunity, nepotism, and gross criminality you are supporting now. Buhari will not rule forever, but the rulebook you are helping him script will be available to those that will come afterwards.
What goes around comes around.. and they just might come sooner than you know.

The Nigeria Police Force has filed a charge against Kogi West lawmaker, Senator Dino Melaye, for alleged illegal weapons possession.

In the charge, which has been filed before the Federal High Court in Abuja, the police said a pump-action gun was recovered from Melaye’s house in July last year during a search of his property in Kogi State.

In the charge, marked, FHC/ABJ/CR/07/2019, the police said the offence contravened Section 27 of the Firearms Act.

The charge sheet reads, “That you, Dino Melaye, representing Kogi West district in the 8th National Assembly, on or about the 20th day of July 2018, at about 12.30 hours under the jurisdiction of this honourable court, unlawfully had in your possession one automatic pump-action shotgun and 20 cartridges, which were recovered at your residence located in the Ayetoro Gbede area of Kogi State, when a search warrant was executed on the directives of the Nigeria Police Force at your above mentioned residence under your control and thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 27(1)(a)(i) of the Firearms Act Cap F28 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.”

The police also listed eight persons as witnesses.

The witnesses comprise six policemen and two men who were painting Melaye’s house when the policemen came to search the property.

They were identified as DSP Babagana Bukar, DSP Ibrahim Abalaka, ASP Abdullahi Musa, Inspector Atabo Okpanachi, Inspector Apeh Peter, Theophilus Nuhu, Matthew Anthony and ASP Mohammed Onu.

According to the statements made by all the witnesses and attached to the charge sheet, the gun was found not in the main building but the ‘boys’ quarters’ where cars were parked.

One of the painters, Theophilus Nuhu, wrote, “On July 24, 2018, my master, Peter, brought one Matthew Anthony and myself from Kaduna State to Kogi for painting work in which he took us to one Senator Dino Melaye’s house at Ayetoro, Gbede area of Kogi State.

“While we were doing the painting, policemen, comprising MOPOL, SARS and SCID, came in and met us in the compound and they told me they wanted to conduct a search in the compound and they started to search the compound.

“Within and around the boys’ quarters building, where some cars were parked, under the flower, a gun was observed therewith many bullets but I do not know who put the gun there.”

Even if it was found under his matrimonial bed, a wailer as you wouldn't believe a sitting senator kept a gun under the bed, it should have been underground or in the cupboard. A sitting senator should have his house under watch using surveillance camera. He should come out with the clips to prove his innocence.

As for you and your house, don't exault yourself beyond what you are. You may not be that important in the scheme of things.
