🎤 “Enough Is Enough!” – Dino Melaye Drops the PDP Mic

In a dramatic political twist, Senator Dino Melaye, ever the firebrand, has officially cut ties with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) — and he didn’t go quietly.

In a letter dated July 4, 2025, and now trending across social media (yes, he posted it himself), the former Kogi West senator didn’t mince words.

"I hereby tender my resignation from the Peoples Democratic Party at all levels of involvement."

Why? Because, according to Melaye, PDP has lost the spark — the energy, the capacity, and the moral ground to “rescue Nigeria” from its deepening crisis.

“The party lacks potency and capacity to deliver the Nigerian people from the prevailing political cankerworms...”

Ouch. That’s a burn that scorches straight through Wadata Plaza.

Melaye, who took a shot at the Kogi governorship in 2023 under the PDP banner, says his decision wasn’t impulsive — it came after “deep introspection.” But clearly, whatever hope he had in the party’s revival has now evaporated.

His resignation marks the latest tremor in Nigeria’s shaky opposition landscape, and everyone’s watching to see:
🔍 Will he float solo?
🌀 Rebrand in a new party?
🎯 Or is he clearing the runway for something bigger?

One thing’s for sure — Dino’s out, and he’s not looking back.

Stay tuned. The political chessboard in Kogi and beyond just lost one knight — or maybe it just unleashed a rogue piece.
