Senator Ben Murray Bruce has publicly welcomed Senator Dino Melaye who reportedly 'defected' from the ruling party, APC, to the opposition party, PDP.
Dino Melaye at the senate today
News made the rounds on social media earlier today that Senator Dino Melaye, defected from the ruling party, All Progressive Congress (APC) to the opposition party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The truth was that Dino Melaye, on his resumption at the senate, had vehemently refused to sit with his fellow APC lawmakers, but decided to sit with the opposition lawmakers, and made it known that his position will be his permanent place during his time at the upper chamber.
The embattled senator representing Kogi west senatorial district, Dino Melaye who on Wednesday,
resumed work at the National Assembly, Abuja, also revealed that the police attempted to kill him twice while he was in their custody.
Meanwhile, in a bid to lure Dino Melaye to change his mind completely as soon as possible to join the PDP, fellow Senator, Ben Murray-Bruce tweeted;
"@Great to have @dino_melaye at the @NGRSenate today and hearty welcome to our great party, @OfficialPDPNig. We will treat you good - no trauma or intimidation whatsoever."
