“I am very proud of you sir. Throughout your reign as president, I was never arrested over the night for one day.
“I was on the streets almost everyday protesting against you and your ministers but I was never arrested by the SSS or the Police and sleep over for one day.
“I was MC of the President Buhari campaign organisation in all the 36 states of the federation. In fact I speak last before giving him the microphone to speak.
“But in the last 3 years, in 2017, I was arrested 18 times, in 2018, I was arrested 16 times, in 2019, I spent 178 days out of 365 days in police detention.
“I was taken to court, Federal Government vs Dino Melaye 12 cases, I don’t think any politician has been through that, 12 cases.
“To the glory of God and the help of Agbagavigivi, ie Chief Mike Ozekhome, we have won 11 out of 12 of those cases, only 1 left,” senatordinomelaye.com
