Former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, has voiced deep concern over recent developments in the country, warning that Nigeria “must not be allowed to die.”
In a post shared on his social media page on Thursday, Melaye described the unfolding events as unprecedented since the return to democracy in 1999.
He cited circulating rumours of a coup, alleged threats of invasion from former U.S. President Donald Trump, and what he termed “arbitrary and egocentric” amendments to existing laws as signs of troubling times.
“Nigeria must not die. The things happening in this country have never happened since 1999,” Melaye wrote.
“Rumour of coup; Trump and America threat of invasion and arbitrary and egocentric amendment of extant laws. Enough is enough. In an unjust society, silence is a crime,” he added.
