Women Protest in Ondo Over Dino Melaye's Attack



A gender-centric group known as Ondo Women for Women in Ondo State has publicly protested against Senator Dino Melaye's unprintable verbal assault and near-physical attack on Remi Tinubu who is the wife of the All Progressives Congress national party leader and former governor of Lagos state, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The pronounced protest took place on Monday, 18th of July, 2016 kicked off on the streets of Akure, the Ondo State capital, according to Premium Times.
The group, which is an arm of the All Progressives Congress in Ondo State, said the attack on Mrs. Tinubu by Mr. Melaye during an executive session of the Senate was an attack on Nigerian women.

They went around the streets chanting solidarity songs and brandishing banners with inscriptions against Mr. Melaye. Briefing journalists after the March, the leader of the group, Olaseinde Vincente, said Mr Melaye had records of assaults and physical attacks on women who either were in romantic relationships with him or in working relationship with him.

“He threatened to beat up Senator Remi Tinubu at the Senate Executive Session and boasting that nothing would happen after carrying out such action,” she said.

“We not only find this action of Melaye appalling, this shameful behaviour of the Senator from Kogi west shocked us the entire Nigerian women.

“We APC Women, Ondo State Wing, are horrified at seeing that a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria could stoop so low as threatening to beat up a fellow Senator, and a woman for that matter during a Senate Executive Session.”

Mrs. Vincent said if Mr. Dino Melaye wanted to flex his muscles, he was free to do so but not by bullying a fellow senator at the senate hallowed chambers.
“Melaye’s excesses and uncontrolled anger towards women should be nibbed in the bud before it gets out of hand,” she warned.
