A former Senator representing Kogi West, Dino Melaye has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), citing the party’s lack of potency and capacity to rescue Nigerians from corrupt practices in the political sphere.
Melaye announced his resignation in a letter addressed to the PDP Chairman in Ward 1, Ayetoro Gbede, Ijumu Local Government Area of Kogi State.
“I hereby tender my resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at all levels of involvement. This decision has become imperative due to the lack of potency and capacity by the party to deliver the Nigerian people from the prevailing political cankerworms that have eaten deeply into the fabric of our dear nation,” the letter reads in part.
He noted that he can no longer in good conscience participate in the activities of the party or lend his support to its agenda, having carefully reflected on the state of the party.
“In view of the above, please consider this as my formal withdrawal from the party and all its activities at all levels with immediate effect. Thank your for the opportunity to serve under the platform during my period of membership,” he added.
