Serves him right! I hate when people ignore the fact that people like Dino Melaye are behind destruction of this Country. If this guy could not prove his innocence through the judicial system then nobody should blame the Nigerian police for doing their job.
Dino Melaye was fingered as a primary sponsor of an arms deal but instead of proving this by honoring the judiciary system, he decided to run away. Why running away? I will never run away if I’m being wrongly accused of the offense I knew nothing about. That is why the whole system is messed up in Nigeria. If the police fails to take action in ensuring justice people like him will be the first to criticize police inept action.
