Former Kogi West senator, Dino Melaye has issued another fierce critique of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
On Sunday, Melaye stated that the party’s founding fathers— Alex Ekwueme, Solomon Lar, Sunday Awoniyi, Adamu Chiroma, Tony Anenih, and Abubakar Rimi would be turning in their graves over the actions of the PDP’s acting National Chairman, Amb. Iliya Damagum.
He asserted that under the leadership of Damagum, Samuel Anyanwu, and Umar Bature, the once-dominant party has become an “obituary.”
Just the day before, Melaye accused Damagum, Anyanwu, and Bature of effectively destroying the PDP.
He claimed that these three leaders have irreparably harmed the party, accusing them of commercializing and privatizing it.
In his renewed criticism, Melaye posted on X: “PDP is the only surviving party of the 4th Republic, enduring for 27 years despite all challenges.
“Founding fathers like Alex Ekwueme, Solomon Lar, Sunday Awoniyi, Adamu Chiroma, Tony Anenih, and Abubakar Rimi would be turning in their graves upon seeing how Damagum, Anyanwu, and Bature are undermining the dream of building a national party. PDP is now an obituary.”
