Justice served – Dino Melaye declares after winning 6-year legal battle with Nigerian Govt

Former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye on Monday said justice has been served in his case against the Nigerian government, after six years.

Melaye said the court has acquitted him of 12 cases filed against him by the Nigerian government.

Posting on X, Melaye wrote: “Justice served after 6 years. Justice delayed is never Justice denied. God alone be praised. Sen Dino Melaye 12- Federal Government and IGP 0. EN. 12 cases all won by God. PROF MIKE OZEKHOME AND RICKY TAFA THANK YOU. NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER.”

Justice Sylvanus Oriji of the Federal Capital High Court in Maitama has cleared Melaye of two charges of providing false information concerning an alleged assassination attempt on his life in 2017.

This legal saga began in February 2018 when Melaye faced accusations of falsely implicating Edward Onoja, the then Chief of Staff to Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello, in the alleged assassination plot.

The initial case regarding the alleged assassination attempt saw delays, including the passing of Justice Aromeh Benson Akogu, the judge overseeing the matter, during a cross-over service on December 31, 2017
