Former Kogi West lawmaker Senator Dino Melaye has described the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as “dead and buried.”
He stated that agents of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the Presidential Villa are controlling the party.
Melaye, a prominent member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), made the comments during an interview on Monday night.
“Except for our Lord Jesus Christ, no dead can rise again. Whatever you are seeing is make-shift. The dead is dead; we can only advertise the obituary,” Melaye said.
He added, “PDP was sold, and I’m not sure if they even got a receipt for the payment, but it was sold. What you have now is an APC-controlled PDP. It’s a party being controlled from the Villa by APC agents.”
Reacting to Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State’s remarks about the party, Melaye said, “If a sitting governor is saying ‘let’s have a party first,’ it means there is no party.”
Melaye also reaffirmed his commitment to the ADC, declaring, “I’m a proud member of the ADC, and that is the party that will unseat Tinubu and, by the grace of God, send him out of the Villa come May 29, 2027.”
