Controversial and outspoken senator, Dino Melaye has announced that he is successfully single, adding that while his family is doing great, he is currently single. While speaking in an exclusive interview with The Leadership, Nigerian politician and the Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial district at the 8th National Assembly, Senator Dino Melaye, disclosed that he is successfully single, and also talked about other personal things about him that may not be known.
 
Here are excerpts from the chat;

You seem to have a glamorous lifestyle given your dress sense and collection of automobiles
 
Anyway, I would say that my dress sense and collections of cars is a passion. I wear things that look nice on me and I try to look smart. Different people have different passion. For some, homosegxwalism is their passion and they can spend any amount of money on it. For some, diamond is their passion and they can spend any amount of money on it. If you argue with me, you can ask Diezani.
 
For some, blood is their passion, occultism, and they can spend any amount of money to get blood. For some, it’s bikes and for some, it’s cocaine. So, if my passion is automobiles, I should not be castigated for it. I have no regrets. For me it’s a passion and looking good for me it’s a hobby.
 
Are you aware that people talk about your living style?
 
I don’t feel perturbed at all and it doesn’t get to me at all because I know that whatever I’m driving and whatever I’m wearing are not products of corruption. The little God has provided for me is not ill-gotten and I should be able to spend my money the way I feel without forgetting that I need to take care of the needy and poor and that I’m doing graciously.

Where is your favourite tourist destination in Nigeria?
 
I enjoyed Jos before it became volatile. I love the climate, I love the weather, I love the serenity of the town, and I love the mountainous nature of the communities around Jos. I also enjoy the Obudu Cattle Ranch. I enjoy the Yankari Game Reserve in Bauchi. I have visited Olumo Rock more than three or four times. So, this country is blessed with a lot of tourist attraction places of historical relevance. Gidan Makama in Kano is another good place I visit often.

What do you eat?

 
Initially, some years ago I do not pay particular attention to what I eat but when I crossed 40, I started regulating my meals. Now, I’m on a special diet not because I’m sick but because I need to be healthy. So, I eat healthy things, I take more greens now, I take more of vegetables. In fact, I do little or no starch. Again, I stopped taking red meat, I do more of seafood and fish. I’m quite particular now about my meals. It’s a little portion. I’m trying to work on my three packs now to become six packs.

Tell us about your family sir?
 
My family is great, my family is wonderful. I love my kids to the moon. My kids are my friends. I have a wonderful family, a God-fearing family. And again, I’m successfully single.

How do you relax?
 
I read books, I do a lot of exercises, I go to the gym.  When time permits, I watch movies and I write a lot. I love to travel, I love to spend time on the mountain, I love to spend time at the waterside, I listen to music and I play soccer.

Dumb Interviewer,  one would have expected him/her to ask the Senathug  what he was in to before he suddenly became stupendously  rich - given the fact that he was a controversial graduate of ABU.  Perhaps the Interviewer couldn't dare to offend a generous Host.
