A video showcasing the new appearance of Senator Dino Melaye's mansion in Abuja has sparked numerous reactions.

The video, shared on his social media pages on Thursday, June 6, 2024, displayed multiple luxurious cars parked in the compound of his mansion.

Captioning the video, Dino Melaye wrote; "Entrance, Façade and entire residence of Dino Melaye's mansion in Abuja wearing a new look."

Nigerians reacting to the viral video claimed that the former lawmaker is flaunting his wealth more recklessly than the immediate past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, who was under investigation for embezzlement by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

In the recent governorship election on November 11, 2023, Melaye was the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in Kogi State.

The former lawmaker garnered 46,362 votes, placing behind Usman Ododo of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Murtala Ajaka of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), who scored 446,237 and 259,052 respectively.

Here are some reactions from Nigerians to the video:

Bassey Asuquo wrote: "This man would have been more reckless than Bello had he succeeded as governor. He's gradually becoming a big nuisance, even to himself!"

Suleiman Abubakar Babagana pointed: "True definition of money miss road. May God heal him from depression."

Hameed Bello posited: "I do not get moved by things like this as long as the sources are not known or verifiable. People should only clap for those whose wealth is seen to be a result of their hard work in life.

"Life is so unpredictable that all these items can be moved to a new owner in a matter of seconds. What matters most is the positive legacies you create, your relationship with your Maker, and what you prepare for your eternal home."

Vicky Stability Amiokam commented: "I'm happy that Kogi people did not make the mistake of making you their Governor."

Taiwo Tiamiyu advised: "As a politician, it's not advisable to flaunt your wealth on social media. Instead of inspiring others, you may come across as oppressive or insensitive.

"Consider adopting a more modest approach, like China's recent policy, which discourages showcasing wealth on social media. Let's focus on motivating others through humility and responsible leadership."
