A viral video of Senator Ademola Adeleke dancing in celebration of his
electoral victory emerged earlier today. While some people like it,
others are of the opinion that a Senator of the federal Republic of
Nigeria shouldn’t be seen dancing in such manner.
Veteran comedian, Alibaba has now reacted to Senator Ademola Adeleke
being criticized for dancing in celebration of his win. Taking to his
Instagram page, He wrote;
So this Senator dances and that is your problem? What have we become?
The Senate is filled with people who were elected through undemocratic
processes. Some married under aged girls. There are those who left their
state broke but left as billionaires. Wife beaters. Distinguished
senator who still owed their workers before becoming senators. There are
the ones that can not even read talk less of contribute to legislative
processes. Some can not even string 3 sentences together. Let’s not even
talk of unbecoming characters. A few are upright in those hallowed
chambers… but will the downright ugly let us feel the beauty of their
thoughts? Naaaaa. Look at their history. What have they contributed to
the Nigeria that they want to legislate for? BEN BRUCE chose
entertainment. He stuck to it. And we can see the things he did. By
himself. Mention others who are comparable to those ideals of “elected
because of contributions to the growth of Nigeria?” FORMER GOVERNOR, is
no contribution. You used state money. And we are fixated on someone’s
dance steps?
I would rather he danced. At least I can see it as his weakness. What of
the thieves that enrich themselves with public funds? Oh it’s not a
dance. A dance is sooooooooo grave. How dare he dance. But it’s ok if he
has strings of girlfriends that are brought to his private party
regularly? What has his dancing got to do with the laws he would make? I
would rather one Senator that dances than one that threatens to sleep
with people’s wives! Or a senator who can not sing the National Anthem!
Or has more money than his working life can justify! Or one that knows
teachers and pensioners have not been paid for over 6 months but
collects his allowances and his salary unfailingly every 23rd of the
month… plus community development allowance for projects we don’t see.
This is how I see it, he can dance all he wants, as long as he is a
Senator in that hallowed chambers. That’s all. So please… let him
dance.
