President of the Nigerian Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki and Senator representing Bayelsa East constituency, Ben Murray-Bruce on Monday, celebrated the 45th birthday of embattled Senator Dino Melaye.

On his verified Twitter handle, Saraki tweeted a photo of the senator having a chat with him on the floor of the Senate, alongside a congratulatory message.

He said, “Happy Birthday Senator @Dino_Melaye. As you celebrate another year, I wish you good health, blessings and the grace of the Almighty.”

Senator Murray-Bruce also shared a photo of the senator, who is currently receiving medical treatment at a police hospital, and wished him a happy birthday, while declaring that history would be kind to him.

He tweeted, “I wish you a healthy 45th birthday my good friend and brother @dino_melaye. True hero of the common man you are. History will forever be kind to you.”

Senator Dino Melaye has been charged with culpable homicide, over an alleged attack on a police sergeant in Kogi State.

After he allegedly failed to honour police invitations, the police laid siege to his Abuja residence for eight days. It ended with him coming out of the house on Friday.

He was taken to the headquarters of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, from where he was transferred to the police clinic for medical attention.
