With the PDP’s massive support base in the state, Melaye’s candidacy is expected to give the party a fighting chance in the Governorship election. The election is expected to be keenly contested, as the current Governor, Yahaya Bello, who is a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is also expected to seek re-election.

The PDP, which is the main opposition party in the state, has been making significant gains in recent times, winning a majority of the legislative seats in the state’s House of Assembly in the 2019 General elections. With Melaye’s candidacy, the party is expected to consolidate its gains and pose a significant challenge to the APC in the forthcoming Governorship election.

The emergence of Dino Melaye as the PDP Governorship candidate in Kogi State has set the stage for a keenly contested Governorship election in November 2023. With the PDP’s massive support base and Melaye’s popularity in the state, the party is expected to give the APC a tough fight and possibly take over the reins of power in the state.
