The 2023 Kogi State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dino Melaye, has made a startling accusation, claiming that the opposition party has been commercialized and privatized.
In a statement released on Saturday via his X handle, the former Kogi West Senator expressed his disillusionment with the current state of the PDP, asserting that the party has lost its relevance in Nigeria’s political landscape.
Melaye specifically accused key members of the PDP leadership, including the acting national chairman, Iliya Damagum, the national secretary, Samuel Anyanwu, and the national organizing secretary, Umar Bature, of playing a pivotal role in what he described as the party’s downfall.
“End of the road for PDP as Damagum, Bature, and Anyanwu irredeemably destroyed the party. We will talk about the commercialization and privatization of PDP. PDP is now once upon a time,” Melaye wrote in his post.
