Dino Melaye, the spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar’s Presidential Campaign Council, made some bold claims during his appearance on Arise TV. He attributed the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) loss in the last presidential election to the actions of Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike
Melaye also claimed that Wike was responsible for the defection of Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s candidate, from the PDP to his party just weeks before the primary election.
Regarding Wike’s opposition to his own candidacy, Melaye asserted that the governor has never truly supported the PDP, citing his support for Governor Yahaya Bello’s candidate over the PDP’s candidate in the Kogi Central senatorial election during the recent National Assembly elections.
“It is Wike’s attitude and character that cost the PDP the presidency. Peter Obi left our party because of Wike.
“Because Wike supported the Chris Uba side during the delegates’ Congress [in Anambra]. And that was why he [Obi] left the party.
“Wike said today ‘if the party picks Dino Melaye as their flag bearer, I will not support PDP in Kogi State’.
“He has never supported PDP. When Natasha [Akpoti] ran this time around, he was supporting Yahaya Bello’s candidate against Natasha in the just concluded 2023 elections.”
