Embattled Senator Dino Melaye has dramatically announced his defection to his former political party.
Dino is facing a seven-count charge bordering on criminal conspiracy and unlawful possession of prohibited firearms.
Many Nigerian politicians are known to always switch parties whenever it’s more convenient.
IGP Idris has said he owed the lawmakers no apologies.
The Senator had earlier been arrested for allegedly arming political thugs in Kogi.
IGP Idris has again refused to show up at the Senate chamber as mandated by the National Assembly today.
Idris is expected to appear before the lawmakers at the plenary over Melaye’s case.
Dino reportedly injured himself while attempting to escape from the police.
Dino has now been taken to the SARS facility to be grilled on allegations by the suspected thugs.
Dino said policemen told him he couldn’t travel as he had been placed on INTERPOL watch list.
Bello’s office said he only injured his left foot while alighting from the vehicle on Good Friday.
Saidu, along with other principal suspects and their accomplices were re-arrested in different locations.
The last of the fleeing suspects, Kabiru Seidu a.k.a Osama, was arrested on Sunday.
It is still unclear whether Dino’s accusers are part of the rearrested suspects.
The Senator said he had already informed his lawyers to take a legal action against the Police boss.
The police have made Dino’s wanted status official.
Janga said that the suspects broke the door of the cell despite that two guards were stationed to keep watch on them.
