Lawmaker buys N180m Rolls Royce despite economic recession [PHOTO]

Senator Dino Melaye has recently acquired a 93-year-old Rolls Royce estimated at N180 million.

 

Premium Times reports that the Rolls Royce has the registration number “MELAYE 2” and is believed to cost some $400,000.

A source said the car was purchased in Las Vegas, in the United States of America.

“Senator Dino Melaye is very smart, he actually got the car from Las Vegas two years ago. At that time, he was busy committed with anti-graft crusade as Executive Secretary of Anti-Corruption Network (ACN) but decided to keep it in secrecy,”  the source said.

Senator Melaye reportedly released the photographs of the vehicle as he prepared to exhibit the exotic model at the National Assembly this week.

Sahara Reporters had earlier reported that Melaye who heads the Senate Committee on the Federal Capital Territory has at least 28 of the expensive cars parked at his upmarket residence in Maitama, Abuja.
