UPDATES: Jonathan Sets Up Panel to Investigate Stella Oduah; Dino Melaye Arrested

Men of the Nigeria Police Force have arrested Dino Melaye following his decision to go ahead with a planned protest over the N255m car scandal involving Minister of Aviation, Mrs Stella Oduah. Dino had led a group of pro-democracy activists on a protest, calling on President Goodluck Jonathan to live up to the expectation of Nigerians and sack the "corrupt" minister from his cabinet.




Anyway, after the arrest of Dino Melaye, President Jonathan immediately swung into action, to show that he is doing something on the fraud. He set up a 3-man high powered team to investigate Stella Oduah.

The three-man panel is to be chaired by the immediate past Head of Service, Sali Bello. Other members are the National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki, and Air Vice Marshal Dik Iruenebere.

Consequently, Stella Oduah was absent at Wednesday's Federal Executive Council meeting in Aso Rock and GURUSLOADED.COM gathered that she is now under security watch.

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Reuben Abati, confirmed the development while briefing journalists after the weekly FEC meeting.

Mr. Abati said the panel has two weeks to conclude its task and advise President Jonathan appropriately.
