‘I Feel Ashamed’ – Dino Melaye On Ghana’s Independence Day Celebration by Emmalez(m): 1:22pm On Mar 06, 2018

Nigerian Senator representing Kogi West in the Red Chamber, Dino Melaye, disclosed how amazed he was to witness Ghana’s Independence Day celebration which has so many cultural and national demonstration of love,unity and purpose.

Dino Melaye who is attending the celebration alongside President Buhari and many other politicians, further took a swipe at the Independence Day Celebration in Nigeria, which he said has been turned into a low key event in the Presidential Villa.

Here’s what he wrote;

I feel sad and ashamed this morning as I physically see the cultural and national demonstration of love,unity and purpose exhibited by Ghanaians here at the Black Star Square in Accra- Ghana as Ghana celebrate their 61st independence and 25 years of uninterrupted Democracy. It is sad that My President and eminent Nigerians watch this glamour and respect for heritage which Nigeria as Regional Champions lost years ago. We have stop celebrating anything in Nigeria. I.e Independece day,Democracy day and Children’s day.

Our Independence Day is now a low key event in the Presidential Villa. The Question is how did we get here and why did we get here! We are here president and citizens of Nigeria clapping for our’younger” brother Nation Ghana! What a shame. The reasons for the fear of National celebrations are the colossal injustices in the land. We as leaders at all levels must be fair and just to all. As long as we twist justice and flow in the gown of injustice and hypocrisy we will never openly celebrate like Ghana is doing today. We must decide to re-think and re-build. Altogether we have failed.

We must bring back our long lost reputation. As a child I always look forward to celebrations like this. What will my children and their generation look out for. God will ask us all,leaders of Nigeria our roles in getting to this abysmal level. Hope Mr President and all of us present in Accra today will learn a huge lesson from Ghana. Congratulations Ghana,Africa is proud of you. SDM

Do you remember how much was purportedly spent on the Millennial celebration (or whatever it was) during the former President Goodluck Jonathan days?? The amount was never made public.

Politicians as Dino Melaye would arm-twist such events to satisfy their lust for money. Our leaders have shown us that they are scared of themselves and as such they cant be trusted with scarce public finance.

Where there is no expenditure (or budget allocation), there will be no corruption for such events.

What is it to celebrate when a lot is wrong with the country?
what is it to celebrate amidst insecurity all over the country?
what is it to celebrate when the effect of poor economy is still biting hard on Nigerians?
these politicians are just too far removed from the masses that they don't understand what language the majority is speaking. Dino particularly should've known better but unfortunately, he is only a typical political hypocrite.

we'll soon see the influx of his boys trying the defend the "indefensible" because of peanuts in exchange for their future undecided undecided undecided...if the youth refused to say NO to these set of leaders, 2019 will just be a repeated history; we're just not learning!

Nonsense! I thought he was going to say he was ashamed of Nigeria's economy, Electricity Provision and other national issues compared to that of Ghana but the 'ijiot' is talking about independence day celebration... Gibberish. I was shocked the day I found out that one Ghana cedes is about 80-90naira.
