The Kogi State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has suspended a former senator and governorship candidate, Dino Melaye, over alleged anti-party activities.
Melaye was suspended by the PDP exco in Ayetoro Gbede, Ward 1, following his refusal to honour a summon.
In a memo dated September 12, the ward executive committee stated that Melaye was summoned to a disciplinary committee in August to address allegations of misconduct but did not attend the meeting.
The memo reads: The Ward Party Executive Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in Ayetoro/lluagba ward 1 met on Friday the 12th of September 2024 to review the report of the disciplinary committee set up to investigate alleged anti-party activities against Senator Dino Melaye, a member of our great party.
“However, he failed to show up, disregarding the invitation and the authority of the party.
“After careful consideration and deliberation, the Ward Party Exco resolved as follows: That Senator Dino Melaye’s failure to appear before the Disciplinary Committee constitutes a gross disrespect to the party and its leadership.
“That his actions are in clear violation of the PDP Constitution and the principles of party discipline.
