Senator Dino Melaye of Kogi West has tendered his formal resignation from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), blaming his exit on the organisation’s inability to provide credible leadership and deliver good governance to Nigerians.
Sharing the resignation letter on his official X account, Melaye tweeted:
“I hereby tender my resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party 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.
“Having carefully reflected on the state of the party, I can no longer in good conscience participate in the activities of the parties or lend my support to her agenda.
“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,” the letter added.
“Thank you for the opportunity to serve under the platform during my period of membership.”
Melaye was PDP Governorship Candidate for Kogi State in the 2023 elections.
