Nigeria Police authorities have vowed not to leave the home of the Senator representing Kogi South Senatorial district, Dino Melaye, until they arrest him.

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

According to the Force Public Relations Officer, Jimoh Moshood, Melaye was wanted for the alleged shooting of one Sergent Danjuma Saliu, attached to Thirty-seven Police Mobile Force, while on stop-and-search duty along Aiyetoro-Gbede-Mopa Road in Kogi State.

Moshood, an Acting Deputy Commissioner of Police, said Melaye had repeatedly spurned several invitations asking him to report for investigation into the case of attempted culpable homicide.

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.

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