Senator Dino Melaye, who represents Kogi West constituency, opened the door to his residence on Friday afternoon in the presence of police operatives and some senators of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) thereby ending 8 days of police siege.
The lawmaker, who surrendered to the police was reportedly rushed to a police clinic in Garki Area 1 of Abuja, after he was arrested and taken to SARS Headquarters.
Channelstv reports that, a police officer who confirmed the incident, said Senator Melaye is currently on bed rest as the police determine their next line of action.
This video shows he was suffering from asthma as they were applying inhaler on him. It appears he could not move himself and was being assisted.
As things are, the police’s expectation is that as soon as the lawmaker recovers, he will return to detention.
