Few hours after he ‘’miraculously’ escaped from the custody of Immigration officials at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, embattled senator, Dino Melaye’s house has been taken over by the police.

Our correspondent who is currently at the scene, observed that four loaded police vehicles have taken over the road leading to Melaye’s house at Mississippi, Maitama, Abuja.
