The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has suspended Senator Dino Melaye from Kogi State, citing anti-party activities.
The Ayetoro/Iluagba Ward 1 party executive committee made this decision after reviewing the disciplinary committee’s report on Melaye’s actions.
Melaye’s recent actions were deemed detrimental to the PDP’s interests and unity, prompting the suspension.
This move aligns with the party’s history of taking action against members accused of anti-party activities. A similar instance is the suspension of Osun chieftain Peter Babalola in August 2024 for alleged anti-party activities and non-attendance at party meetings for two years.
The suspension memo was issued on Friday.
In another instance, former Governor of Benue State, Samuel Ortom, was also suspended by the Benue PDP over alleged anti-party activities.
Similarly, Senator Gabriel Suswam and others were summoned by the Benue PDP over alleged gross misconduct and anti-party activities.
These actions demonstrate the PDP’s commitment to maintaining party discipline and unity. However, details of Melaye’s suspension are still emerging, and more information is expected to follow.
