Former senator Dino Melaye has returned to social media following the backlash that trailed his appearance at the recent ADC 2026 convention held in Abuja.

The former lawmaker became a major topic online after attending the political event in a striking outfit that included a black shirt, cap, sunglasses, and noticeably oversized flowing tan trousers.

His fashion choice quickly sparked reactions across social media, with some users accusing him of turning a serious political gathering into a fashion show.

Reacting to the criticism, Melaye shared a video of himself stepping out of his upscale residence and walking toward a fleet of luxury vehicles, including a black SUV and a red sports car.

He accompanied the clip with a caption that appeared to dismiss the criticism while expressing confidence in divine guidance.

“Worry not about man… Only what God permit will happen. In God I trust,” he wrote.
