Made In Nigeria "Products" Fiasco: Senator Dino Melaye Vs Governor Adams Oshiomhole

Dino Melaye's failed marriages above and Oshiomhole and wife below

I think Senator Melaye is either looking for attention or just expressing subtle jealousy when he picked on Governor Oshiomhole of Edo state in his recent rant at the house of assembly over promoting made in Nigeria products. Watch the clip and deduce if his speech was necessary and when did it become the norm to address women as "products"?

This is coming from Senator Dino whose first marriage to a Nigeria woman was documented on social media on how he battered his wife before divorcing her, his second marriage  to a Nigerian also followed the same trail.

The Edo state Governor not one to cower under flimsy accusations responded back to senator Melaye's accusations through his chief press secretary Peter Okhiria with a few choice words 

“As a ‘nephew’ of the Governor and members of the same party, we expected Senator Melaye to tender an unreserved public apology to the Comrade Governor, to no avail. “It is an open secret that Senator Melaye cannot maintain a decent matrimonial home hence he could descend to this pedestrian level of using the hallowed chambers to ‘cargorise’ women as if they were pieces of items for purchase. Any responsible individual that is truly worth to be called a Senator, a position that convokes respect, decorum and decent public conduct, should know the limits of his verbal diarrhoea.

“The liberty of free speech guaranteed in the hallowed chambers does not impose lunacy on anyone to disparage other Nigerians, let alone pry into their matrimony in a very derisive manner. We had intended to ignore this uncomplimentary comment as one of the several empty displays of the Senator, but the fact that it tends to reduce women to pieces of tissue calls for this response. “As we probed into Dino Melaye’s humanity, we were reminded that he is a man known for his vainglorious rodomontade and the childish display of his ostentatious lifestyle complements his love for foreign items.

Many of such eurocentric mentality he has persistently displayed on social media, to underscore his materialistic eccentricity, hence his dialectical opposition to made-in-Nigeria goods. “But an attempt at making women wear the garb of goods to be picked off the shelves was to take the issue to a ridiculous and irresponsible level. By delving into the private affair and marriage of the Comrade Governor, Senator Melaye has exposed himself as a simpleton and a court jester whose words and tactlessness cannot be taken seriously by matured people. “We advise that Melaye should mend his ways with his ex-wife and concubines before coming to the village square to display his crass ignorance and emptiness to the Nigerian people.

“If he has anything to offer, Dino Melaye should concentrate on making good laws for the people of Nigeria rather than descend to a ridiculous level, thus displaying to the whole world his unworthiness to sit in the hallowed chambers of the Nigerian Senate.”
