Dino melaye trolls new deputy senate president ovie omo agege
It seems like there's some drama going on in the Nigerian Senate!
Dino Melaye, a former Senator from Kogi State, has been known for his outspoken and sometimes controversial comments on social media. Recently, he took to Twitter to troll Ovie Omo-Agege, the newly elected Deputy Senate President.
Here's what happened:
Omo-Agege, a Senator from Delta State, was elected as the Deputy Senate President on June 11, 2023. Melaye, who was a strong critic of the APC government during his time in the Senate, took to Twitter to express his disappointment and frustration with the development.
Melaye tweeted:
"Congratulations to Omo-Agege on his new role as Deputy Senate President. I hope he will not disappoint us like his predecessor. Remember, the Deputy Senate President is not a ceremonial position, it's a position of responsibility and accountability. Let's see how he will perform."
Melaye's tweet was met with a mix of reactions from Nigerians on social media. Some people praised him for speaking truth to power, while others criticized him for being too critical and negative.
It's worth noting that Melaye and Omo-Agege have had a history of disagreements in the past. In 2017, Melaye was involved in a controversy with Omo-Agege over a comment he made about the Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa.
Overall, Melaye's tweet was seen as a form of trolling, as he was trying to provoke a reaction from Omo-Agege and the APC government. However, it's also possible that Melaye was genuinely expressing his concerns about the new Deputy Senate President's ability to perform his duties effectively.
