Legendary Nigerian Comedian, Ali Baba has condemned those passing uncomplimentary remarks against the Senator elect for Osun West Senatorial election, Ademola Adeleke for dancing publicly. On Tuesday, a video of the Senator dancing to some rhythms with supporters went viral on social media platforms.


Some commentators, who were not favorably disposed to the public display of excitement, claimed the Politician was dancing because of the money he would make at the Senate. Other described his dance moves as "gayish" among other uncomplimentary remarks.


Meanwhile, the ace comedian has called on Nigerians to allow the Senator-elect to celebrate his victory in peace, as his action has no bearing on the laws that will be made at the National Assembly.


He added that the Senate Chamber has very few morally upright Nigerians, stressing that most of the lawmakers had contributed to the poverty in the land. . The comedian made his position known via a post on his Instagram page. The post reads in full;


"So this Senator dances and that is your problem? What have we become? The Senate is filled with people who were elected through undemocratic processes. Some married under aged girls. There are those who left their state broke but left as billionaires. Wife beaters. Distinguished senator who owed their workers before becoming senators. There are the ones that cannot even read talk less of contribute to legislative processes. Some cannot even string 3 sentences together.

 

Let's not even talk of unbecoming characters. A few are upright in those hallowed chambers... but will the downright ugly let us feel the beauty of their thoughts? Naaaaa. Look at their history. What have they contributed to the Nigeria that they want to legislate for? Continue...

 

BEN BRUCE chose entertainment. He stuck to it. And we can see the things he did. By himself. Mention others who are comparable to those ideals of "elected because of contributions to the growth of Nigeria?"

 

FORMER GOVERNOR, is no contribution. You used state money. And we are fixated on someone's dance steps? I would rather he danced. At least I can see it as his weakness. What of the thieves that enrich themselves with public funds? Oh it's not a dance. A dance is sooooooooo grave. How dare he dance. But it's ok if he has strings of girlfriends that are brought to his private party regularly? What has his dancing got to do with the laws he would make?


I would rather one Senator that dances than one that threatens to sleep with people's wives! Or a senator who cannot sing the National Anthem! Or has more money than his working life can justify! Or one that knows teachers and pensioners have not been paid for over 6 months but collects his allowances and his salary unfailingly every 23rd of the month... plus community development allowance for projects we don't see.

 

This is how I see it, he can dance all he wants, as long as he is a Senator in that hallowed chambers. That's all. So please... let him dance. David danced. Was an adulterer. Murderer too. But he gave you guys the Psalms that you cast and bind with."
