Dino Melaye Not Suspended — PDP Ijumu Chairman

Isiyaku Ahmed

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Ijumu chapter has categorically and unequivocally stated that the purported letter of expulsion of Senator Dino Melaye is a forgery and cannot stand.

According to Hon. Olorunmaiye Olabode, the party’s Ijumu local government council, the letter is “ridiculously and hurriedly written” with inconsistencies in the date and day.

In a communique issued on Friday and made available to Tribune Online in Lokoja, the party reiterated its support for the PDP constitution, guidelines, and regulations.

The communique reads:

The communique read as follows “We stand firmly with the Party, the Constitution thereof, and the Guidelines & Regulations that are issued from time to time. We stand by the fact that no materials were brought to Ijumu LGA to carry out the Ward Ad hoc Congress on the 27th of July, 2024.

“We stand by the truth that no LGA Congress held in Ijumu LGA at any time to elect a National Delegate. We did not participate in the purported State Congress, which was illegally held in Lokoja on the 31st of August, 2024, knowing that it was a failed kangaroo arrangement.

“We are made aware of a communique in circulation which was concocted by external enemies of the Party from outside Ijumu, who are forces of destabilization and who want to remove our leader, the leader of the Party in the State, His Excellency, Senator Dino Melaye, who is the voice of the voiceless, so they can ride roughshod over loyal Party members in Kogi State.

“We categorically and unequivocally state that the said purported letter of expulsion is a forgery and cannot stand. It is so ridiculously and hurriedly written that the day and date do not tally.

“We also state that such a correspondence which is meant to expel an important member of the Party as Senator Dino Melaye, a prominent member Of the Party, member cannot be handled in this criminal manner, no PDP member in Kogi has done what our leader has done nationally for the PDP.

“We challenge these traducers to mention the anti-part activities of Senator Dino Melaye.

“The man who still paid for the accommodation of the party at the state headquarters and paid the salaries of staff. bought 10,000 copies of membership cards just last month and shared them among party members and new joiners. He gave 2 million naira to the party just last month as a running cost.

“We therefore here state for the records that it is a breach of the Constitution of the Party not to follow due process in the haste to execute the malicious and mischievous plan.

“We urge all members of the Party in Ijumu and the State to disregard the purported dismissal or expulsion of our staunch, loyal, committed, unflinching State leader who abhors anti-party activities in all ramifications for which reason he is being vilified by agents of destruction.”
