Dino Melaye said on Friday that he escaped an
attack, almost 24 hours after his associates claimed he was kidnapped.
The senator said in on Twitter at about 11:00
a.m. Friday that he escaped an attack on him, saying he would continue to
prevail over his enemy.
Concerns about Mr Melaye’s whereabouts
were first raised by Ben Murray-Bruce, one of his closest colleagues at the
Senate.
The senator was said to have been kidnapped on
his way to Lokoja from Abuja to appear in an ongoing criminal trial.
But some Nigerians countered that the
controversial senator might have faked his kidnap to avoid going to court.
Mr Melaye had twice claimed alleged
assassination attempts on his life, only for the police and some leaked phone
conversations of himself to cast doubts about the claim.
