Nigerians blast lawmaker over threat to beat, impregnate Tinubu's wife
Dino Melaye allegedly threatened to beat up and impregnate Senator Oluremi Tinubu during a rowdy session on the floor of the Senate on Tuesday.
According to Sahara Reporters, Mr Melaye had issued the threat to Mrs Tinubu after she said "the Senate should not be reduced to a stage where Senators could just issue childish threats" following plans by some lawmakers to impeach President Buhari.
The lawmaker denied issuing such threat to Mrs Tinubu, saying: "It is now obvious that Sahara Reporters lies,blackmail and propaganda is now limited edition and shameless."
This however did not deter Nigerians as they have been reacting to the lawmakers' comment on various social media platforms. See some reactions from twitter below.
