The Nigerian Police Force, yesterday, said operatives who laid siege at
the residence of Senator Dino Melaye were there to effect his arrest.

The
decision, Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, clarified, was
in connection to the attempted culpable homicide in the shooting of a
Police Officer, Sgt Danjuma Saliu, attached to 37 Police Mobile Force
(PMF) while on duty at a stop and search point along Aiyetoro Gbede,
Mopa Road in Kogi State.

Moshood, in a statement yesterday, said
the offence was committed by Senator Dino Melaye and his armed thugs in
Kogi State on the 19th July, 2018 when they shot and wounded the police
officer. He added Police Officer is yet to recover from the gunshot
injury he sustained during the attack and still under intensive medical
care.

According to him: “Police investigators have written the
Clerk of the National Assembly for Senator Dino Melaye to report at Kogi
State Police Command, CIID, Lokoja for him to answer to these offences
against him under investigation in Kogi State Police Command but he has
bluntly refused to report himself to the Police.

“Police
operatives will continue to be in wait at the residence of Senator Dino
Melaye until he surrenders himself for arrest. The offence for which
Senator Dino Melaye is being investigated is capital in nature and not
compoundable.

“The Force will not tolerate attack on his
personnel by any individual no matter how highly placed. The law must
take its course.”
