June 12: You’re Overwhelmed, Nigeria Not Lagos – Dino Melaye Hits Tinubu by adenigga(op): 9:29pm On Jun 12
Former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, has said President Bola Tinubu is overwhelmed and incapable of leading Nigeria.


Melaye, who said Tinubu is wearing an oversized shoe, noted that Nigeria is not Lagos, where he reigned supreme.

He spoke in Abuja during the third posthumous legacy colloquium held in honour of the late founder of DAAR Communications, Raymond Dokpesi, where he faulted Tinubu’s Democracy Day speech.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain noted that the president’s speech failed to reflect the hardships confronting ordinary Nigerians.

He said, “Any leader of this country who has failed in security and failed in welfare is a failed president. The president is wearing an oversized shoe. You cannot give what you don’t have.

“Nigeria is not Lagos. He is overwhelmed. He does not have the intellectual, emotional, or physical capacity and capability to lead this country.

“He cannot be Commander-in-Chief because this country has never seen it this bad. In the last three years alone, three serving generals have been abducted and killed. Abroad, only one pilot went missing, and America deployed everything to locate him.

“So, when generals are being killed, what is the state of our security? I am not among those saying the government should pay ransom.

“I am only saying the government should show capacity. And when you cannot do it, you should resign honourably and leave.”

There is a lot of Sense in what he said....

Jagaban is a Colossal failure in the Area of Insecurity....

His kinsmen are being slaughtered and kidnapped in Ogbomoso and other parts of the South West and he is not showing Capacity....

That is a Big Slap on his face as Commander in Chief....

So Dino Malaye is more Sensible than the people that would be voting for a President that has failed to protect even his own kinsmen...

Tinubu is the most incompetent and clueless president in Nigeria's history.

Look at the man whose constituency project is buying cars for himself talking.

When it comes to capacity and capabilities as you called it, Tinubu will score 99.9% while you can not get even 10%

Nigerians did not do any protest on June 12, they just went there to make noise.

When Nigerians are ready for protest, the same Nigerians will know.

You're claiming protest but the people you're protesting against are giving out honors to their favorite criminals.

On a more serious note, Tinubu is the worst of the worst president Nigeria has ever had since 1999, it is terrible.

Instead of Dino to go straighten his two left legs, he be spending time on people who don’t give a flying fwck about his existence.


His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR) will never join him in that sty he inhabits.

Overwhelmed is not the right word here

Tinubu is incompetent and clueless

"Everyone claims to be democratic but not everyone is faithful to his or her word. We have governments that are democracies on paper, but not in function. They are democracies in form but not in substance. We have governments that only know democracy primarily through breaching it"

Dino is not the President. Let Tinubu face his job squarely..BAT is the Presido.

People would spit when they hear the name Tinubu. His incompetence would make that name labelled a total failure.

In the future all these places named after him would changed. That name is bad luck

The bulk of security stops at the Presidents table.

This is what Tinubu told Goodluck Jonathan, please go and verify.

The death of the generals should motivate other generals to end the problems of insurgence and banditry

Tinubu never did anything tangible while he was the lagos state governor. Remember lagos was the former federal capital of Nigeria.

Tinubu is a known drug lord and specializes in bribing his way through shamelessly just like wike.
