Former Kogi West senator Dino Melaye, on Saturday, accused the acting national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Iliya Damagum, Samuel Anyanwu, and Umar Bature of destroying the former ruling party.
Melaye said the three chieftains have irredeemably destroyed
PDP.
Posting on X, the former lawmaker also hinted at the
commercialisation and privatisation of the opposition party.
According to Melaye: “End of the road for PDP as Damagum,
Bature and Anyanwu irredeemably destroyed the party. We will talk about the
commercialisation and privatisation of PDP. PDP is now once upon a time.”
Recall that there were indications that the PDP National
Working Committee, NWC, might sanction Damagum and National Secretary Samuel
Anyanwu for an alleged letter to the Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt.
The letter was seen as an anti-party activity, and some
party leaders, including members of the National Executive Committee, NEC,
pushed for action against Damagum and Anyanwu.
But, on Thursday, Damagum warned that nobody can intimidate
him into resigning from his position.
Damagum said those calling for his resignation are only
enhancing his popularity.
Speaking at the inauguration of the National Reconciliation
and Disciplinary Committees, the acting chairman berated those spreading
misinformation about NWC operations.
“Let me send a message to everyone talking about Damagum
this, Damagum that—I cannot be intimidated. The more you mention me, the more
popular I become,” Damagum said.
