‘Dino Melaye After My Life’, Senator Remi Tinubu Writes Police IG
Senator Remi Tinubu has reported Senator Dino Melaye to the Acting Inspector General of Police, Mr. Ibrahim Idris, over their recent altercation.
Tinubu said her life isn’t safe anymore and requested police protection from Mr. Idris.
“During the proceedings of the Senate on Tuesday, July, 14, 2016, I had cause to contribute to a matter of national importance. Apparently dissatisfied with my contributions, Senator Dino Melaye threw caution to the winds, resorted to vulgar abuse of my person and wanted to assault me,” she said in a letter written to Mr. Idris.
“It was the timely intervention of a number of colleagues which prevented Senator Melaye from unleashing physical attack on me. However, as the leadership of the Senate did not call him to order in the circumstance, he proceeded to threaten my life without any provocation whatsoever.
“In view of Senator Melaye’s antecedent particularly in the House of Representatives where a brawl led to the untimely death of a member, I have decided not to ignore his threat to my life. Therefore, Iam compelled to urge you to use your good offices to provide me with adequate security.
