“I am very sad about what is going on in the Senate. All former senators and members of the House of Representatives should be sad,” he said in a solidarity message given at an emergency meeting of Lagos Central District leaders and stakeholders in Surulere, The Nation reports.

“Senator Dino Melaye is rude to a woman of substance and a diligent senator who has brought pride to the party, her constituency and the womenfolk. He should be suspended from the Senate with immediate effect,” Fasanmi added.

Fasanmi also urged Nigerians to be careful of voting in legislators with faulty character.
