SEE HIS CARS...Even if you sell my cars, it won’t help Nigeria out of recession – Melaye

this man sef......The lawmaker representing Kogi West, Senator Dino Melaye, has replied those criticizing him for spending millions on automobiles.
The controversial lawmaker said even if he put up his expensive cars for sale, it would not help the nation out of economic quagmire.
Speaking with Punch, Melaye said, “Yes, my cars cannot underwrite the recession problems of this country. Even if you sell my cars now, it will not make Nigeria to come out of recession.”

On his closeness with senate president, Bukola Saraki, the outspoken lawmaker said he would always stand with him.

He said, “Bukola Saraki is my friend. He is my brother and I value friendship. My definition of friendship is he or she who walks in while others are walking out.
“I am not a monetised character. I don’t commercialise my conscience. I do what is only right in man’s sight and in the sight of Almighty God. No one has the money to buy me. My relationship with Bukola Saraki is true friendship and I will stand by him come rain or shine. I will always be by his side as a friend and I will always advise him rightly.
“I did not pitch any tent against my party because as a senator, I swore an oath before God and before man using the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) and also using the Holy Book. I swore to uphold the constitution and there is no All Progressives Congress senator, there is no Peoples Democratic Party senator.

“All we have is senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. So, the party to me is just a vehicle for winning elections because no political party in this country is ideologically based; no political party in this country has a manifesto that is being implemented.
“The governor of Kaduna State is from the APC; the governor of Kano State is from the APC, but the programmes of the Kaduna State governor is apparently at variance with that of his Kano State counterpart.

“So people should not use the instrumentality of political parties to determine loyalty to the nation. My loyalty is first to Nigeria before my political party and the independence of the Senate is important to me.
“I believe that the internal issues of the Senate should be handled internally and I give my support to Bukola Saraki. I have no regrets about it.”
Melaye had recently said that Nigerian women are special, endowed and that they should belong in the presidency and not only in the kitchen.
