A former senator, Dino Melaye has accused the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, leadership of destroying the party beyond redemption.
Melaye specifically accused the Acting National Chairman, Umar Iliya Damagum, National Secretary, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, and National Organising Secretary, Umar Bature, of being behind the bad fortunes of the party.
Melaye has kept a low profile since he lost the Kogi governorship election and refused to challenge the outcome in court.
In a post via his official X handle, he said, “End of the road for PDP as Damagun, Bature, and Anyanwu irredeemably destroyed the party. We will talk about the commercialisation and privatisation of PDP. PDP is now once upon a time.”
