The senator representing Kogi West, Dino Melaye, has been arrested by the police as he was about boarding a plane on his way to Morocco. The senator took to social media where he made it known that he has been stopped from travelling and placed under arrest.
He wrote:
”I have just been arrested at the international wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe airport on my way to Morocco for an official engagement sponsored by the Federal Govt after checking in. Stopped from traveling and under arrest. No retreat no surrender. Talk we must”.
Shedding more light on the arrest, Dino Melaye said his passport was snatched from him but he snatched it back.
“My self and the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, and others were to be on an official trip to Morocco but while some have gone through the Lagos airport today, others are to depart tomorrow.
“I got to this airport I was checked in and was already in the lounge waiting for departure. Immigration officers invited me that there is a directive from the police that I can’t travel; that I am on their watch list. And I said it was not true, that the INTERPOL said they had not issue an alert on me. I opened INTERPOL’s website and showed them the denial. But they insisted that it was based on the directive from the police.
“I was disembarked and asked me to go to their office (at the airport). They snatched my passport but I snatched my thing back from them. I got it back! I’m still here with them. They circled me and said they were waiting for further instructions from the police”, he said.
