‘When will he end this drama?’ — and other reactions to ‘collapse’ of Melaye
After days of laying siege to the residence of Dino Melaye, senator representing Kogi west, the police finally have him in their custody.
The police had stormed the Abuja residence of the lawmaker on December 28, with the intention of arresting him over alleged culpable homicide.
When he surrendered on Friday, the lawmaker “fainted at his residence and at headquarters of the special anti robbery squad (SARS).
Below are Twitter reactions to the lawmaker’s action:

Dino Melaye is a typical example of how the elites believe they are above the law, like its their personal right to be lawless with impunity.
Kudos to the @PoliceNG for their resilience.

Those that seek to destroy @adeyanjudeji and @dino_melaye will themselves be destroyed.I say this because I know they are both praying men.Queen Victoria said "I do not fear the armies of Scotland but I fear the prayers of John Knox".@MBuhari will soon find out why she said so.

Will Dino Melaye end this drama now that he has allegedly surrendered to the Police? Let’s hope he won’t be jumping off or climbing tree on his way to Force Headquarters. An undignified & dishonourable Senator!!

😁😁😁. Wayo na sense. Dino tried to deceive d police by saying he wasn't at home & would honor their invitation whenever he comes back to Abuja whereas he was at home. Dino had no intention of honoring d invitation if he wasn't smoked out like a rabbit. Lol pic.twitter.com/C52TejHur3

Just so we don't forget, Dino Melaye was one of the APC's loudest and merciless attackers and those who are mocking him and relishing at his travails, insulted and bullied those who called him out then.

Dino just succeeded in making us look like a joke to the international community. Haba!!! Respect the intelligence of the people you represent. Pity party doesn’t last.

This same overplayed, outdated kannywood script again? Next is the neck brace, followed by the wheel chair, then asthma attack and finally both arms in slings.

National disgrace.. They are insulting the office of the Senate.

On Dino Melaye, I can tell you for free – There would be a MASSIVE CRISIS in NASS over his persecution.
See, Buhari is NOT a smart politician. He only understands the use of force.
The senate headed by SP Saraki would teach him a thing or two once more.

Dino Melaye is a joker 😅. Next best performance since Alamesiegheya dressed up as a woman.

If it was your brother that was shot on duty… I bet you'd be wondering why it took so long to get @dino_melaye into custody…
We shouldn't make these criminals feel bigger than the law.
Let him face it, if he's not guilty God will fight for him.

This country and a lot of joke. Common sense seems to be out of reach in some high places! Why this type of disgraceful theatrics by a whole senator? What's this? What's this?

See the amount of police leaving @dino_melaye residence and people are dying everyday up north?

Does he think if he dies today, 2019 General Election won't hold ? Imagine a Nigerian senator disgracing himself

The likes of Dino Melaye is making the hallowed chambers of the Nigeria National Assembly a laughing stock before the international comity of nations. Imagine an average Nigerian act the way Dino did, that very day the Police would have smoked him out.

The NPF have been compromised, they're not reliable anymore.. Politicians use them as shield – they're now considered to be worst than agberos… This is Nigeria!
