APC youths condemn Senator Dino Melaye

Senator Dino Melaye, a fallen man

The youth leader of the All Progressives Congress, Southwest zone, Femi Egbedeyi, has condemned the verbal assault of Senator Dino Melaye against Senator Remi Tinubu (OON).

In a statement issued today, the APC youth leader stated: ”The Southwest APC read with consternation Melaye’s public boast that nothing will happen to him if he carries out his threat.

”Melaye has escaped judgment so far despite his well documented history of notoriety for violent conduct both in public and private affairs. He now lives in fool’s paradise with the mindset of being a law unto himself. But he has forgotten that anyone who climbs the tree beyond the branches will kiss the soil.

”In our view, Melaye’s case is not about the fact that nothing can happen to him if he carries out his threat. We want to let him know that that something has indeed happened to him as the fate of uncultured and uncouth people like him are already sealed in the Yoruba lifeworld.

”It is only a matter of time before he realizes, perhaps too late, that he has crossed the Rubicon and the bridges behind him are burnt and left for him now is the weight of the punishment of his previous violent escapades.

”No one should cry for Melaye when his terrible fate begins to unravel as a grace-to-grass narrative. He has had many opportunities to turn a new leaf but has spurned all, preferring to be a perpetual disgrace to all social institutions that produced him.

This marks a significant escalation as the Houthis widen their involvement in the conflict beyond their typical operations within Yemen and neighboring Saudi Arabia. The Houthis’ Justification In their statement, the Houthis framed the attack as retaliation for Israel’s military actions in Gaza, which they characterized as indiscriminate bombings resultin...
