- He said the PDP has been weakened and destroyed by the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, which purchased it.
Former Kogi West Senator Dino Melaye says
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is no longer the colossal and formidable political party that ruled Nigeria.
He said the PDP has been weakened and destroyed by the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, which purchased it.
Malaye claimed that the opposition party is run by the APC and the presidency, adding it receives dates for its National Executive Committee, NEC, meetings directly from the Presidential Villa.
Melaye made the allegation while speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday night, a day after submitting his resignation letter to the PDP.
“PDP has been purchased by the APC. The PDP is a parastatal of the APC. In fact, they take dates for NEC meetings and NWC from the Aso Villa. Look at these PDP governors, are they acting as opposition? And you know how powerful governors are,” Melaye said
