Senator
Oluremi Tinubu, from Lagos State, has warned lawmakers against linking the
travails of embattled Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye to the President Muhammadu
Buhari-led government.
The lawmaker, who is the wife of Bola Tinubu, national
leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, gave the warning while the senate
deliberated on the matter, on Wednesday.
According to Tinubu, ”If we are talking about a particular issue, we should
stay with it but when we are bringing in a government that a lot of people
supported to be here, using whatever happened to implicate the government, I
think I am against that.
“We should face the issues. I am not in support of what
happened to Dino. If we have anything against the executive, we have the
leadership here who is supposed to go and meet with Mr. President.
“This government is only three years old compared to 16
years of rot. It has only been in power for 3 years and inherited a lot of
trouble.”
Melaye is currently at the intensive unit of the National
Hospital, Abuja, after he allegedly jumped off a police
vehicle while being transported to Lokoja, the Kogi State
capital to face criminal charges.
