Antidotes For Corruption By Dino Melaye
Dino Melaye is trending again, not for singing another song; this time, it’s for writing a book which he launched yesterday about fighting corruption. He launched the book titled ‘Antidotes for Corruption’ and many Nigerians are finding it very ironic that he would write such a book. Present at the book launch were dignitaries like former first lady of Nigeria, Patience Jonathan, current Senate President, Bukola Saraki and even former Big Brother Naija housemate, TBoss. The internet trolls are making fun of the whole issue saying that corrupt people are writing a book about how to tackle corruption. Here are a couple of screenshots of such tweets:
