The police in Lokoja today said they have charged the senator with illegal possession of firearms in a case filed in a Lokoja court on 16 March.
Charged along with the senator were another politician, Muhammed Audu , said to be on the run and two other ‘deadly’ persons linked with a spate of kidnapping and robbery.
One of the two suspects was identified as a 31 year-old Kabiru Saidu, a.k.a Osama. T
The other was Nuhu Salisu, who is 25 years-old.
The duo were arrested in January. Police claimed they had confessed that they were also working as thugs for Senator Melaye.
“Fabricated lies by Kogi State Govt and the police will fail. It’s utterly laughable and preposterous. It’s a sign of desperation”, the embattled Senator tweeted today.
