Senator Dino Melaye has accused online media platform, Sahara Reporters of cyberstalking.

Melaye made the allegation in a petition which he sent to the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris.

Sahara Reporters had earlier reported that the Senator did not graduate from Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria.

It also published a story stating that Melaye’s classmate in ABU revealed that he stole a brand new television set.

In his letter to the IG, the flamboyant Senator said “I will like to draw your attention to the recent cyberstalking acts committed against my person by the following individuals and organisations.”

“Sir, this act is highly vexatious, an insult and an attempt to impair, harm, damage and assassinate my character.

“I humbly implore you, Sir, to use your good office to order immediate investigation of this act and ensure the said individuals and organisations are made to answer to the law.”
