Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial District, Dino Melaye has expressed fear of an imminent revolution against Nigeria’s ruling class, including himself.
Melaye, who is infamous for his ostentatious lifestyle, said he was afraid of the revenge of the poor, adding that what happened in Russia, Sudan and France, will soon take place in Nigeria.
The lawmaker further noted that the segregation in Nigeria where the rich are known to reside in some particular areas, put them in more danger. In a tweet on Friday, Dino said:
“I am afraid of the revenge of the poor.
“It happened in Russia, France and recently in Sudan. It can happen in Nigeria.
“Housing segregation put us the elite in jeopardy. Ikoyi, Banana, Maitama, Asokoro etc.
“Our leaders, including me, beware of violent revolution. Perilous times loading.”
