Dino Melaye returns

Dino Melaye returned to the Senate on Wednesday, May 30, 2018 after he was granted bail by the Lokoja High Court on Wednesday, May 16, 2018.

Melaye was arrested on April 23, 2018, after the police declared him wanted following confessions by some criminals who alleged that he sponsors them.

Cross carpet

Melaye caused a stir in the Red Chambers when he refused to sit with Senators from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He then moved over to the side of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senators to take a seat, fuelling speculations that he has decamped.
