Former senator Dino Melaye says he will sue over Zacch Adedeji’s involvement in President Bola Tinubu’s political campaign plans for 2027. Both reports say Melaye links his legal action to Adedeji’s appointment to Tinubu’s and the APC’s 2027 campaign council, characterizing it as a conflict of interest.

According to Melaye, Adedeji’s position creates an overlap with his current responsibilities. One outlet frames Adedeji as FIRS chair, while the other emphasizes Melaye’s claim of conflict with Adedeji’s role as NRS chair. The outlets do not provide details of the suit, the court he plans to use, or any response from Adedeji or the relevant APC/Tinubu campaign bodies.

The reports focus on Melaye’s stated intention and the underlying allegation of conflict, offering limited independent verification. They also do not cover whether Adedeji’s appointment has been formally challenged by other parties or whether any legal notice has been issued.
