A fight broke out between former Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom and former Kogi West Senator Dino Melaye on Wednesday during the PDP North Central Zone leadership meeting.
Melaye provided an explanation of the incident on his X account on Thursday, stating that it started because Ortom supported All Progressives Congress President Bola Tinubu in the run-up to the 2027 election.
He wrote, “Why will Ortom attend a PDP meeting after declaring support for Tinubu in 2027. Hence, my altercation with him at the PDP North Central Zone leadership meeting.”
Melaye also shared the video of the altercation posted by an X user named #iamhistory_ on his social media account. The user claimed that Melaye embarrassed Ortom at the meeting.
The caption read, “Senator Dino Melaye embarrassed former Governor Utom of Benue State today.
“Melaye said he was shocked that Governor Utom could feel comfortable sitting in a PDP meeting, walking in majestically after his anti-party activities.
“Dino said he is shameless and should be disciplined. Both of them shouted at each other. Ortom was shocked and lost. In the end, he spoke without replying Melaye.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]
