It appears things have suddenly fallen apart for Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike and Nigerian former lawmaker, Senator Dino Melaye.
The once political allies have now turned political enemies.
For those who don’t know, trouble started after Governor Wike chided Dino Melaye on his ambition to become the next governor of Kogi State.
Wike said; “When you give Dino that ticket, you know he won’t win in Kogi State. Why would Kogi people say they would vote for a candidate like Dino? Are we joking?”
However, Dino, reacting to Governor Wike’s comment, warned him to stay on his lane.
He said; “On recovering from his inebriation, Wike should be reminded that Kogi is not Rivers, and the people of Kogi State would not worship any foreign God.”
“Above all, Wike should also understand that power belongs to God, and he gives it to whoever he wants, even the basest of men.”
“Today, Wike can take a swipe at me, and mark me down as unqualified to govern my state, but has he forgotten that he believed my Gubernatorial aspiration in 2019?”
“Can he be reminded that I have served as a member of the Federal House of Representatives and have also been elected twice into the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
“Wike needs to appreciate that now that he has touched the tiger’s tail and murdered sleep, the discomfort of a bird perched on a rope has now become his portion.”
“Wike, stay on your lane. I am Daniel Dino Melaye. My speciality is to tame lions, whether they be white or black, dwelling in rocks or floating on Rivers.”
“Wike has turned himself into a depraved interloper, who probably out of schizophrenic impulse engage in pitiable melodrama whenever he steps away from the intoxication of his bottle companions.”
