The clash began when Lere Olayinka posted a photo of Dino Melaye's Rolls-Royce missing its front plate, calling it lawless. Fayose hit back in Pidgin English, insisting luxury models like his own—and even Wike's and his brother's—lack space for front plates, then claimed Olayinka's late father was his dad's gateman.
