EFCC Arrest: Video of Dino Melaye mocking Yahaya Bello surfaces

Dino Melaye and Yahaya Bello

A video of former Kogi state governorship aspirant, Dino Melaye, mocking ex-governor Yahaya Bello has surfaced on social media.

The video popped up after the Economic and Financial Crime Commission laid siege at the former Governor’s residence in Abuja on Wednesday, April 17, 2024.

Recall that in 2021, Dino Melaye, stormed the headquarters of the EFCC with two bags he said contained documents he tendered against Yahaya Bello.

He claimed the Yahaya Bello administration engaged in corrupt practices in awarding contracts, borrowing from non-capital markets, circumvention of procurement procedures among others.

On Wednesday, April 17, 2024, an Abuja high court granted EFCC permission to arrest Yahaya Bello, ahead of the arraignment on Thursday.

However, a Kogi State High Court dismissed the siege saying the EFCC cannot arrest the ex-governor.

Shortly after the presence of the EFCC at Bello's residence, a video surfaced on social media of Dino Melaye mocking the ex-governor.

The video has since attracted several reactions online.

isaacfayoseoriginal_: Why is white lion running from EFCC? He should also summon a courage like how Fayose humble their invitation in 2018. EFCC I’m here. At least Fayose went their the day he left office as a governor. Fayose is the only that doesn’t fear EFCC.

jaycruisee: EFCC should be giving the country breakdown on how or where the money they retrieve went

michael._u: If not for anything even, just the way he handled Kogi state and its people deserves punishment.

adamibrahimadeshola: This is the difference between the City Boy and past government...Just figure out how @officialasiwajubat is fighting CORRUPTION with strategies unlike others that they're shouting and bragging about fighting CORRUPTION I knew very distinctly that nah all of them, Dem go arrest including Ganduje Baba just they use scope for them all, make them no distract him from working in his first tenure... I pray may God bless His Excellency's Bola Ahmed Tinubu, guide you right to continue doing the right thing for the citizens of Nigeria and May God bless Federal Republic Of Nigeria
