Influential politician of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC), Dino Melaye may be in for yet another major scandal after an audiotape revealing how he framed some people leaked online.
Senator Dino Melaye has revealed how he deliberately framed others in his alleged assassination case, using the police.
In yet another phone audiotape obtained exclusively by Saharareporters, he tells Muhammed Audu, the son of late former Governor of Kogi State Abubakar Audu how he used his connections with the police to frame someone referred to as "Edward" (believed to be Edward Onoja, the Chief of Staff to the current Kogi State Governor), in the alleged assassination attempt on him at his country home.
The Kogi State Senator reported an assassination attempt on his life at his home in Ijumu on April 15, and on April 29, the police paraded six persons, including the chairman of Ijumu Local Government area, one Taofik Isah, who were allegedly involved in the crime.
On the new audiotape, Melaye, speaking mostly in Hausa, reveals to Muhammed that the assassination story was carefully orchestrated to rope in his opponent, and how his access to the highest echelons of the police facilitated his effort to frame “Edward” in the alleged plot to assassinate him.
Only last week, SaharaReporters published another audiotape in which Senator Melaye was caught bribing Justice Akon Ikpeme of the Cross River State High Court in the election petition tribunal process which brought him to the Senate two years ago.
All the persons alleged to have participated in the assassination are currently on bail.

My brother, I said it on this platform and people felt it's not possible but today the truth is gradually coming out. Remember the incident happened in the heat of the allegations surrounding his degree certificate. He quickly moved to divert people's attention by writing that fake script to draw sympathy from unsuspecting Nigerians but he can't fool me. Everything about that man is a lie. Even his good morning greeting, if you check your time, you will still discover it's a lie. Fake senator, Fake graduate, Fake Nigerian. Nonsense
