Embattled Kogi West senator, Dino Melaye, on Wednesday dumped the All Progressives Congress (APC) senators for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He made the move on the floor of the senate on Wednesday, attending plenary on for the first time after some weeks absence.
Without making any formal announcement, he refused to sit in the area meant for APC senators. He sat beside PDP’s Ben Murray Bruce.
The senator has been bed-ridden since he landed in the hospital after a failed attempt to evade being taken to Kogi State by the Nigerian police.
He appeared at the Red Chambers on Wednesday in a white attire and a bandage wrapped around his neck.
