Senator Dino Melaye has replied via a post on his Instagram page after Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello attacked him, saying the lawmaker was not properly nurtured into adulthood by his parent.
The comment came Wednesday as a political feud between the two former allies deteriorates, following an outbreak of violence at a political rally in Kogi, for which the two politicians blame each other.
Mr. Bello said it had become apparent that Mr. Melaye’s “reckless” behaviour could be traced to his childhood, admonishing Nigerian parents to do their utmost and ensure that their children were properly cultivated.
“You see, I would rather admonish Nigerians that when a child lacks proper parental care and upbringing, he constitutes social menace in the society,” Mr. Bello told journalists in Abuja.
And if the society does not take steps to check and correct such a child, they can take into criminality, then it will be left to government to check such criminality.” .
The governor also scolded senators for doing little to rein in alleged exuberance of their colleague, saying they risk being viewed as cut from the same cloth as Mr. Melaye.
