Former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye, has declared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is “dead and buried,” alleging that the party is now under the control of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time on Monday night, the outspoken politician, who is a key member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), claimed that agents from the Presidential Villa have taken over the PDP.
According to Melaye:
“Apart from our Lord Jesus Christ no dead can rise again and I want to tell you that whatever you are seeing is make-shift, the dead is dead, we can only advertise the obituary.
“Dead and buried, PDP was sold and I’m not sure if they got the receipt of payment but it was sold and what you have now is APC controlled PDP.
“It’s a party that is being controlled from the Villa, it’s the agents of the APC that controls the PDP.”
Melaye also responded to Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State’s recent remark about the PDP. He said:
“If a sitting governor is saying let’s have a party first, it means that there is no party.
“I’m a proud member of the ADC and that is the party that will unseat Tinubu and by the grace of God send Tinubu out of the Villa, come May 29, 2027.”
