The Senator representing Kogi West, Kogi State, Dino Melaye, was on Thursday arraigned at an Abuja Court.
Melaye was arraigned by the Federal Government for alleged false information that the Chief of Staff to the Governor of Kogi State, Edward David, planned to assassinate him.
Melaye’s information to the police that Edward had planned to assassinate him was said to be false, hence the arraignment.
