Senator representing Kogi West senatorial district in the National Assembly, Dino Melaye has warned that the common Nigerians would rise up against the elites if the latter is not wary of it exploitative conduct.
Melaye speaking in a video he posted on his Twitter page observed that if the rich people in the Nigerian society do not protect the poor, a time will come they will not enjoy their riches.
His words: “Our government must create an enabling environment for the youths to thrive. That is basic. Every country deserves the kind of leader they have. Nigerian youths must start asking questions, by holding leaders including myself accountable.
“The elites, myself inclusive, we are very weak. We use the bravado of office to intimidate and oppress the poor. But the poor do not know that power truly belongs to the people and they can determine what the elites would do,” he added.
