Former Kogi West Senator, Dino Melaye has advised the suspended national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Umar Damagum to join the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Recall that a faction of the PDP National Working Committee (NWC) had suspended Damagum and the party’s national secretary, Samuel Anyanwu.
Another factional NWC also suspended the party’s national publicity secretary, Debo Ologunagba and national legal adviser, Kamaldeen Ajibade.
Reacting to the development on Friday via his X handle, Melaye stated that the suspended chairman has done enough harm to PDP.
He wrote, “APC agent of destruction, enough is enough, Damagum. Go and join APC in peace.
“Bye-bye, Damagum, the harm you’ve done is enough.”
Naija News reports that the Abuja Federal High Court has, however, restrained the National Executive Committee (NEC) and PDP’s Board of Trustees (BoT) from removing Damagum as the party’s acting national chairman.
The court ordered that no other person must be recognised as PDP national chairman other than Damagum until the national convention of the party, scheduled for December next year.
Those Who Accepted Spaghetti And Wrapper To Vote For Tinubu Are Suffering The Most – Damagum
Meanwhile, Damagum, has taken a jab at Nigerians who supported President Bola Tinubu during his campaign.
He said that they are now enduring the consequences of trading their votes for items like spaghetti and wrappers.
Damagum stated this on Friday during a visit to the Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, who doubles as the Chairman of the PDP governors forum.
He noted that the ongoing hardships faced by many should serve as a lesson to prioritize credible and capable leaders over short-term inducements.
Addressing journalists after a close-door meeting with the governor and other stakeholders of the PDP, he said, “The APC was never ready to govern, so what good could possibly come from them?”
“Those who accepted spaghetti and wrappers to bring in this government are suffering the most, and this should serve as a lesson. We must seek credible, proven, and tested leaders who are genuinely prepared to govern, not those who simply say, emi lo kan,” (SIC).
Damagum expressed concern over the continued hardship many Nigerians are enduring, which he attributed to policies from Tinubu’s administration under the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Speaking on Damagum’s visit, Governor Bala Mohammed denied the existence of any faction within the PDP.
He also reassured that the issues of suspension and internal crises would be resolved amicably.
