Melaye’s suspension was confirmed in a statement jointly signed by the PDP’s Ward Chairman, Mr Abayomi Osamika, and Secretary, Mr Yodson Dayo, and made available to journalists on Friday in Lokoja.

According to the statement, Melaye’s suspension was ratified by the Resolution of PDP Ward Exco meeting held in Aiyetoro, on Thursday September 12, 2024, and signed by all executive members of the party.

The statement said Melaye’s conduct had brought embarrassment and disrepute to the party, maintaining that his continued membership of the party is no longer tenable.

“The Ward Party Executive Committee of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), in Ayetoro/lluagba ward 1 met on Thursday, 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.

“Recall that Senator Dino Melaye was invited to appear before the Disciplinary Committee on 20th August 2024, to answer to certain allegations of misconduct and anti-party activities, in line with the provisions of Article 57(4), of the PDP Constitution.

“However, he failed to show up, disregarding the invitation and the authority of the party.”

The party at the ward said after careful consideration, it resolved that Senator Melaye’s failure to appear before the Disciplinary Committee constitutes a gross disrespect to the party and its leadership.

Adding, “that his actions are in clear violation of the PDP Constitution and the principles of party discipline”, and that the former lawmaker’s conduct “has brought embarrassment and disrepute to the party, and his continued membership is no longer tenable.”

“Therefore, the Ward Party Exco hereby suspends Senator Dino Melaye from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), effective immediately.

“This suspension is in line with the provisions of Article 59(1) of the PDP Constitution, which empowers the Ward Party Exco to take disciplinary actions against erring members.”

The party urged all its members to remain committed to the principles of party discipline and loyalty.

“We must work together to build a strong and united party, capable of winning elections and serving the interests of our people,” the statement read.

Every attempt made by our Correspondent to reach out to Sen. Melaye for his response on the suspension proved abortive as he did not respond to calls and messages sent to his phone.
