Senator Dino Melaye Releases Song to Mock Former Kogi Governor (video)

"Gist"

A former Senator and ex-governorship candidate of the opposition PDP, Dino Melaye has released a song mocking former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello.

Melaye shared the video after the Economic and Financial Crime Commission laid siege on the former Governor’s residence in Abuja on Wednesday, April 17, 2024.

Earlier in 2021, Dino Melaye, stormed the headquarters of the EFCC with two bags he said contained documents he tendered against Yahaya Bello.

He claimed the Yahaya Bello administration engaged in corrupt practices in awarding contracts, borrowing from non-capital markets, circumventing of procurement procedures among others.

On Wednesday, April 17, 2024, an Abuja high court granted EFCC permission to arrest Yahaya Bello, ahead of the arraignment on Thursday.

However, a Kogi State High Court dismissed the siege saying the EFCC cannot arrest the ex-governor.

Shortly after the presence of the EFCC at Bello’s residence, a video surfaced on social media of Dino Melaye mocking the ex-governor.

Reactions:

isaacfayoseoriginal_: Why is white lion running from EFCC? He should also summon a courage like how Fayose humble their invitation in 2018. EFCC I’m here. At least Fayose went their the day he left office as a governor. Fayose is the only that doesn’t fear EFCC.

jaycruisee: EFCC should be giving the country breakdown on how or where the money they retrieve went

michael._u: If not for anything even, just the way he handled Kogi state and its people deserves punishment.

drsmile247: What will be the outcome? Where is former Governor of Anambra State Mr Willie Obiano?

cyril_unusual: If they EFCC was not politically financed, Tinubu, shetima, and Dino, sud all be in jail.
