Edo State:2,100 Defectors From APC and LP Join PDP

Happy days have continued unabated in the Peoples Democratic Party as the party has once again recieved huge number of defectors from the opposition parties in Edo State to its fold.
News Agency of Nigeria(NAN) has reported that not fewer than 2,100 members of the APC and LP yesterday ditched their parties for the all-inclusive party,the PDP.

This is what Edo North Senatorial Chairman of LP, Mr. Onasa Momoh, who led defectors from the party to the PDP had to say,“We must put an end to cartels and individuals who have perfected the culture of greed and selfishness. We have chosen to join a party that is focused on creating jobs within a moral economy, a party that responds to the needs of the vulnerable,” he said.

Similarly, Chief Lance Momodu, who led the APC members that decamped, said they were PDP members who went on sabbatical to APC.

“Instead of one man, one vote, what we are experiencing is one man, no vote. APC is disorganised and running a one man show and also playing the politics of exclusiveness,” he said.

Most interesting is the fact that these mass defections took place in  Auchi,the Local Government Area of the present governor,Adams Oshiomhole.
