House of representatives speaker, Mr Yakubu Dogara, has threatened the Nigerian police over the wellbeing of Senator Dino Melaye. He told the police to prioritize the health and safety of the senator, who is currently facing a seven-count charge of criminal conspiracy and unlawful possession of firearms in Kogi State.
Dogara said this on Thursday in Abuja after a personal explanation was raised by Rep. Sunday Karimi drawing the attention of the House to Dino’s plight. Dogara said, “I have not seen in any country where someone is arraigned in court on stretchers when he or she is not fit to plead guilty or not guilty. If anything happens to him, (Dino) the responsibility will be on the security agency“.
