5,000 APC Members Defect To PDP In Oshiomhole’s Stronghold In Edo State

While the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole is in Abuja, battling the renegade members of the party and strategising how to win the 2019 general elections, all seems not to be well with his stronghold of Etsako, Edo North Senatorial District as scores of APC supporters yesterday dumped the party for the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

At a well attended rally at Auchi and Agenebode, headquarters of Etsako West and East local government areas respectively, some prominent chieftains and supporters who abandoned the party blamed inept leadership for their decision.

At Agenebode, where over 5,000 people detected to the PDP, a top APC leader Alhaji Oreomo Amama admonished the defectors to be steadfast and work assiduously in ensuring that all PDP candidates are delivered in the 2019 elections.

The Edo state PDP chairman, Chief Dan Osi Orbih who received the new members said the message of the PDP is very simple, spreading the gospel of truth, good governance and security for the people which the PDP government is known.

Orbih said: “Our people can no longer go to the farm because of the menace of the Fulani herdsmen who take so much pleasure killing innocent Nigerians”.

Orbih noted that once political activities fully commence on November 18, a robust issue driven campaign will be initiated across the 18 LGAs and 192 wards in the state.

He therefore charged the people to come out enmass and continue to propagate the good news of the party.
