"Dino Melaye Alleges Secretive Influence over PDP by APC Operatives from the Presidential Residence"
In a recent appearance on Arise Television's Prime Time, Senator Dino Melaye made bold statements about the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Nigeria.
Melaye, the leader of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), described the PDP as a make-shift party, lacking structure or autonomy. He went further to assert that the PDP is currently an APC-controlled party.
The senator compared the current state of the PDP to a dead body that cannot rise again, implying its inability to function independently. However, he did not provide any new information about the sale or control of the PDP by the APC or any receipt of payment for such a transaction.
Melaye also expressed his intention to contest against Tinubu in the future, representing the ADC, with the aim of unseating him and sending him out of the Villa by May 29, 2027.
During the discussion, Melaye alleged that the PDP is being controlled from the Villa by agents of the APC. He, however, expressed uncertainty about the existence of a receipt of payment for the sale of the PDP to the APC.
The Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, was quoted earlier as saying that the PDP should be formed first before any discussions about its control or leadership can take place.
Political tensions and interests conflicts are common in Nigeria, with politicians often switching parties, leading to speculative reports. If Melaye's statements are accurate, they could indicate political tensions or internal conflicts within the PDP, but without official sources or confirmations, it's challenging to verify the exact circumstances.
For more detailed information or specific details, it is recommended to seek official declarations or reports from trusted news sources.
