Protect me from Melaye, Tinubu begs IG

The lawmaker representing Lagos-Central senatorial district, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, has written a petition against her Kogi-West counterpart, Senator Dino Melaye.
In the petition which was addressed to Ibrahim Idris, the acting Inspector-General of Police and dated July 18, 2016, the senator, who is the wife of the National Leader of the All ProgressivesCongress(APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said Melaye threatened her life on the floor of the Senate last week.
She said Melaye had an inclination  for violence as he had engaged in fisticuffs with his colleagues when he was in the House of Representatives between 2007 and 2011.
The complainant alleged that a particular lawmaker had even died after being beaten up by Melaye.
She, therefore, urged the IG to protect her from harm.
