Opinion: Satanic Mansion: Senator Dino Melaye and the Lost Youth Generation, By Toyin Falola

The Dino Melaye trademark represents cancer that is fast spreading in the psyche of the average exposed and socially battered Nigerian youth. We should warn our young men and women to look in another direction for mentorship, as it is said, “not all that glitters is gold.” Dino Melaye’s lifestyle and habits portend a warning sign that the more the satanic mansions we build, the greater our troubles.

That a youth who took his time to get “quality” education would wake up one morning, and after reflecting on the struggle of employment, think and conclude that “all way na way — I should be like Dino” , who in eight years could boast of this much wealth.

The latest of his dates with controversy was the recent tour of opulence covered and aired by none other than Mr. Dele Momodu, chairman ofmagazine — which in some quarters has been labelled a “vanity photo album.” This particular episode shows our former senator revelling in his treasure trove, while leading a visibly impressed witness in a chorus of ‘oohs’ and ‘ahhs’ that reek of shameless concurrence.

Traditionally, the adults within any group, by their experience, bear the responsibility of guiding the younger generation on how they can be productive and beneficial to themselves and the society that accommodates them. This is achieved more efficiently through observed behaviour and demonstration, not merely by word of mouth. In Africa, there is a famous saying that, “what an elder sees while sitting, a child cannot see even from atop a palm tree.

To the discerning mind, these are critical times for Nigeria, when no contribution or action can be considered too insignificant in turning the tide from a destructive course to a constructive one.
