Popular Nigerian politician and billionaire, Dino Melaye, has mocked former Kogi state governor Yahaya Bello following his recent arrest with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Recall that the EFCC arraigned Yahaya Bello on a 19-count charge of money laundering amounting to N80.2 billion. This followed Justice Nwite’s issuance of an arrest warrant on April 17, after the former governor repeatedly failed to appear in court for his arraignment.
The now-viral video shows Dino Melaye, who is a member of People Democractic party (PDP), using a catchy song to mock the former governor. In the lyrics, he revealed that he knows Yahaya Bello will be probed after his ruling from 2016 to 2024.
While blending Yoruba and English in his lyrics, he sang, ‘Do you know Yahaya Bello ma se won leyin Ijoba? I know Yahaya Bello ma se won leyin Ijoba,’ which translates to ‘Do you know Yahaya Bello will be imprisoned after his government? I know Yahaya Bello will be imprisoned after his government.’ The controversial lyrics stirred an uproar among social media users, sparking heated debates.
He also bragged that he won 12 cases against the government during his time.
What captured the attention of many was that he had backup singers who were adding their melodious voices when he was singing.
The video triggered massive reactions as social media users shared their thoughts via the comment section. Some reactions are shown below:
