The Rolls Royce
Influential APC politician and the senator representing Kogi
Central, Dino Melaye, has reportedly acquired a 93-year-old Rolls Royce
estimated at N180 million, amid a national recession that has left
millions of his compatriots struggling to feed daily.
According to Premium Times, the flamboyant senator who owns a fleet
of luxury and antiquated cars worth billions of Naira, has at least 28
of the expensive cars parked at his upmarket residence in Maitama Abuja.
The Rolls Royce has the registration number “MELAYE 2” and is believed to cost some $400,000.
Speaking to a correspondent, a close source said the car was purchased in Las Vegas, in the United States of America.
“Senator Dino Melaye is very smart, he actually got the car
from Las Vegas two years ago. At that time, he was busy committed with
anti-graft crusade as Executive Secretary of Anti-Corruption Network
(ACN) but decided to keep it in secrecy,” the source said.
The chairman of the Senate Committee on the Federal Capital
Territory reportedly released the photographs of the vehicle as he
prepared to exhibit the exotic model at the National Assembly this week.
