How Nigerians react to Dino Melaye's mansion

Below are some Nigerians' reactions 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."
