Social media users have responded differently to a viral video of Governor Diri Duoye dancing joyfully and in thanksgiving in a church on Sunday.
The church choir sung songs of praise to God as Governor Diri Duoye danced and gallantly displayed his “leg movements” in the viral video.
While some social media users praised the governor’s appreciation to God and compared him to the biblical figure David, others were unhappy and criticized him for being insensitive—especially given that many inhabitants of Bayelsa state are presently dealing with a flood disaster.
Bayou “What’s he dancing for? For his state that is the state with the highest flooding in Nigeria or what??”
Joshua “Its high time we need to be checking our politicians mental balance before voting for them, imagine a governor of a state where many people lost their lives and properties to flood dancing like this in public place.”
Lady Purple “Dancing when his state is submerged in water”
Cindy “Is this why he was voted into office? No, be flood dey finish people for him state like this? Wetin dey make am dance? Why is he happy at this point in time “
Seun “And your state is in serious flooding chaos, u dey here dey dance like investor Sabinus”
Niyi “In the midst of the flood, how insensitive. Can this entertainment just stop? Do our Governors believe this is part of their mandate?”
