I have just been informed by Moses Melaye, @dino_melaye’s brother, that Dino has been abducted by unknown persons in a Toyota Sienna that blocked their car and overpowered them on their way to Kogi to answer to Dino’s court case. Lets be on the watch out. Will keep you updated.

I wholeheartedly condemn the abduction of @dino_melaye. I implore those that have kidnapped him to return him home safely to his family and loved ones. I urge the Federal Government to do its job and protect the Nigerian people before it is too late.

Why are some people making a joke out of Dino Melaye’s abduction?
What if is it’s no drama and something bad happens, God forbid.
Someone’s life is not a thing to kid around with.

Plot twist… What if Dino Melaye planned his own kidnap just to gain public sympathy?

Dino Melaye said to be abducted on the way to court today.
Condolences to his family.I have deep concerns as to why anyone would abduct a man already going to face the law.
And I also hope this is not a self-arranged kidnap to avoid court.Oh Nigeria.
The drama never ends.— YourFavOnlineDoctor (@DrOlufunmilayo) July 26, 2018
Who has now kidnapped Dino Melaye? Can’t y’all corrupt politicians just get along?

Similar case, Saraki was on his way to honor police invitation, before police blocked him. Dino on his way to court, but was abducted. This a Nollywood script similar to neck brace story. Please look for another script.

First you burn down the schools that Sen. Dino Melaye built as part of his constituency projects.Then you try to murder him by pumping his car with over 20 bullets.Killing him will not solve ur problems or silence the opposition. It will only make things worse. Leave Dino alone! pic.twitter.com/VkzVcI1n7i
