It is unfortunate that political charlatan and social misfit like Senator Dino Melaye could have purportedly represented the great people of Kogi West Senatorial Zone for a dreadful and agonizing four years given his unholy record for childish trantums, public theatrics, unruly conduct and abusive language deployed against perceived adversaries and the general public!
We are saying this because Dino Melaye is not fit to hold the esteemed office by any stretch of imagination as his erratic behaviour is not fit for the office he once occupied.
To enlighten our collective memories, it is the same Dino Melaye as a Member of the House of Representatives in the 6th Assembly whose clothes were torn to shreds during free for all fighting in the House chambers and was subsequently suspended along with his unruly anti-Bankole group for gross misconduct for more than a year!
Even innocent school children on an excursion to the National Assembly witnessed the show of shame that involved a ruffled Dino Melaye being rough handled by security men when he was pushed out of the House Chambers in order to prevent further outbreak of violence involving him and the pro-Bankole group who had vowed to teach him a lesson for his wayward mannerisms!
'Senator' Dino Melaye's conduct also extends to his domestic affairs as he has been known to physically assault his previous spouses at even the slightest argument or disagreement!
Times without number, his previous spouses were allegedly hospitalised and treated for serious injuries inflicted on them by a Dino Melaye who acts like a man without limit or bounds.
In one infamous example, his former wife (name withheld) was rushed to hospital for major surgery involving one of her rib bones been removed to replace a damaged bone in her nose broken when Dino Melaye allegedly smashed a huge laptop on her face!
Despite her intense pain and agony, an imperious Dino Melaye never showed any remorse and allegedly dumped her personal belongings outside his house declaring that the 'marriage was over!'
His crude disrespect for the female gender, even those older than him in age and even higher in position is well documented!
The same errant Dino Melaye publicly abused the incumbent First Lady, Dr Remi Tinubu when she was a Distinguished Senator allegedly calling her all sorts of unprintable names and would have ordinarily been suspended from the Senate for his egregious misconduct if not that his powerful ally, Senator Bukola Saraki was the then Senate President!
During commitee sittings, public hearings and plenaries during his tenure in the National Assembly, 'Senator' Dino Melaye's distasteful character traits was always in full display, shouting, bullying, hectoring, and insulting any one that comes accross his path!
When he was Deputy Chairman, House Committee on Information and National Orientation, a raucous Dino Melaye allegedly abused managing directors and executive secretaries of federal agencies during a public hearing and when the Committee Chairman, Hon Mustapha Khabeeb (now Senator Khabeeb) intervened, a defiant Dino Melaye allegedly called him an 'old, useless fool'
In fact to fully document the litany of 'Senator' Dino Melaye's petulant, erratic, uncouth, despicable and patently buffonic mannerisms is beyond the scope of this short piece, suffice to state that Senator Dino Melaye does not belong to the company of sane, literate and mature minds!
He should either be taken to a mental rehab centre to be treated psychologically as he is clearly not fit to hold public or political office.
We rest our case.
