A flamboyant senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Dino Melaye, has fired back at British Prime Minister David Cameron for saying Nigeria and Afghanistan are two most corrupt countries in the world.
Mr. Melaye took to Twitter to react to the statement.
He wrote: “David Cameron is wrong in categorizing my beloved country Nigeria as fantastically corrupt,what are his indices,yardsticks and criteria.”
“While I agree that we are corrupt,on what basis can he justify that we are the most corrupt country in the world?”
“David Cameron face the allegation of UR involvement in the Panama saga & leave Nigeria alone,we’re no longer a colony of yours #Panama”
“Cameron should appreciate the efforts of this administration in fighting corruption & restoring our reputation and dignity,” Mr. Melaye wrote.
