Dino Melaye Blasts Peter Obi Over ADC Exit, Claims NDC Is “APC Agency”

Nigerian politician, Dino Melaye, has criticised former presidential candidate Peter Obi following his defection from the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC).

In a post shared on Instagram, Melaye questioned Obi’s political resilience, arguing that his repeated exits from political parties suggest an inability to handle internal crises. He further claimed that if Obi cannot manage party-level challenges, he may struggle with governing a complex country like Nigeria.

Melaye alleged that the NDC is an “agency” of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), suggesting political coordination between the two groups.

He also referenced Obi’s political history, noting his movements across several parties, including APGA, PDP, Labour Party, ADC, and now NDC, implying that he has consistently avoided competitive party primaries.

Obi, on his part, had announced his resignation from the ADC on Sunday, May 3, citing what he described as a “toxic” political environment and internal instability within the party. He has since joined the NDC as part of ongoing political realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections.
