PDP Asks for Melaye’s Suspension Over Party “Dead” Outburst

Party Chaos in Kogi State as Sen. Dino Melaye Is Targeted for Suspension

Trouble is brewing in Kogi State’s People Democratic Party (PDP), following Senator Dino Melaye’s recent outburst in which he declared the party dead. In a sharp rebuke, the state PDP chapter has asked its local executive committee in Ijumu to initiate immediate suspension proceedings against the outspoken senator.

According to a statement by Alhaji Ibrahim Dansofo, the party’s elder leaders, Melaye’s decision has “crumbled” his political ambitions to the point where he can no longer even secure a local councilor position. Dansofo further accused Melaye of being a “burden” to the party, citing his hypocritical claims against the current leadership.

The PDP attributed its current struggles solely to Melaye’s nomination, arguing that this mistake led to the party’s predicament. In a bold call to action, the party urged former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Governor Ifeanyi Okowa to reconsider their support for Melaye and distance themselves from someone the PDP described as a “big-time liability.”

The implications of these events are far-reaching, highlighting the complex dynamics within Kogi State’s PDP. As party stakeholders consider their next moves, one thing remains certain – Senator Dino Melaye is under fire, with many questioning his future within the organization.
