The senator representing Osun West senatorial district in the National Assembly, Sen. Ademola Adeleke has been warned against embarrassing the nation with public display of his dancing prowess.
A social political group, Movement for New Nigeria, gave the warning in a Friday statement.
The group in the statement signed by its National Coordinator, Comrade Sunday Kelani said it was disgraceful that the senator was known more for dancing than for contributing to the passing of meaningful laws.
The group warned the senator against “taking the dignity of legislature for granted”, saying that that he is no more a private person, but a public office holder of high echelon in Nigeria.
The statement read in part, “The routine dance of the Senator representing Osun West senatorial district is becoming a big embarrassment for people of his constituency and Nigerians as a whole.
“Instead of making appreciable contribution constructively to nation-building, Senator Adekeke is busy dancing across the country rather unabatedly.
“The place of legislature in a democracy is too important and serious for any of its member to resort to a mere entertainer and official dancer.
“This attitude of the lawmaker is highly unbecoming of a man with that political stature, this must stop as a matter of importance and exigency.
“There is a limit to how a politician could go to impress the people outside the specified statutory obligation through performance; the earlier the senator knows that his dancing step is no more catching the fancy of anyone the better for him.”
The senator (PDP – Osun West) had hit prominence in 2017 when his victory dance went viral on social media.
