Nigeria’s Minister of State and Employment, Festus Keyamo
has mocked ‘Twitter senators’, Shehu Sani and Dino Melaye for failing to return
to the red chamber, though they are active on the social media.
Melaye and Sani who lost their seats are very active on
social media platforms, including Twitter.
Melaye, who ran under the platform of the Peoples Democratic
Party, lost to Smart Adeyemi of the All Progressives Congress. Sani was
defeated by Senator Sani Uba also of the APC in Kaduna Central.
“Have you noticed that all Twitter Senators are finally out
of the Upper Chambers? It tells us that the world of real politics in Africa is
not yet played on social media.
“Social media has not had a substantial impact on our
politics. Real politics is different from social media,” Keyamo tweeted.
