Flamboyant senator and ’emerging
godfather of Kogi State politics’, Dino Melaye is in the news again!
This time, he has not challenged the Lion of Bourdillion to a fight.
Latest information is that Melaye,
chairman of the Senate committee on the Federal Capital Territory (FCT),
representing Kogi West in the National Assembly on the platform of the
All Progressives Congress (APC), has bought a classic Rolls Royce
estimate at $400,000 (N180 million).
Investigation has revealed that the
Rolls Royce with Registration No. MELAYE 2, was acquired two years ago
in Las Vegas, United States of America.
The picture of the Rolls Royce was
secretly taken in his garage, during a visit to his residence in the
highbrow Maitama District of the FCT in Abuja, during a visit on
Wednesday, October 5, 2016.
A source said, “Senator Dino Melaye is
very smart, he actually got the car from Las Vegas two years ago. At
that time, he was busy committed with anti-graft crusade as Executive
Secretary of Anti-Corruption Network (ACN) but decided to keep it in
secrecy.”
A Google check on the car indicated that the Rolls Royce is a rare collectible item that is not only scarce but very expensive.
Checks have confirmed that the Rolls
Royce which is a 1923 model is 93 years old, and is used by only a few
persons in a special grade.
While no reason has been given why Dino
Melaye had decided to keep it for the last two years unannounced, it is
believed that he would steal the show in the National Assembly whenever
he brings the car.
