"You can take 2liters of acid and shut up" - Hon. Dino Melaye (former House member)

Former Nigeria House of Representative member, Dino Melaye, seems to know how to attracts attention to himself for whatever reason.

He was caught recently telling someone on twitter to "take 2litres of acid and shut up".

The incident occurred when a twitter handler @topeatiba initiated an online forum on the topic 'Who Is Dino Melaye' using the hashtag #WhoIsDinoMelaye?

After some tweets from other twitter users that questioned the former honourable's motive behind series of protests he led against the government he once benefited from, Dino Melaye seems to lost his cool as he fired back.

"@topeatiba you can take 2liters of acid and shut up"

In another response by Melaye, he said "@topeatiba I have always done (serve). (It) is either you were in comma or in jail when I was serving"

The motive behind the forum, according to the initiator, was to create a platform where the former representative member's recent activities and motive can be discuss and his idea better understood.

It will be recalled that fmr rep member, Dino Melaye was suspended from the House after he led a group that caused uproar on the House floor. He regained his seat but was defeated in the next general election that ought to return him back to the legislative arm of the government. He was also at the front of the OccupyNigeria protest in Lokoja, Kogi state in January 2012 when the federal government of Nigeria removed fuel subsidy.

Dino Melaye who has 13309 followers as at the time of this report is yet to remove the tweets from his account.
