Orbih who spoke in Benin yesterday also praised the 14 senators and the 37 House of Representatives members who also left the party.
He said: “Your resolve to join our party, the PDP, marks the beginning of the end of tyranny and slide to the dictatorship of the APC federal government.
“On behalf of members of PDP in Edo State, we salute your courage in the face of intimidation, harassment and brute display of power arrogance and misuse of security agencies to cow and silence the opposition.”
Orbih said that the poor treatment shown to the former APC national chairman Chief John Oyegun has started manifesting in his successor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole’s bohemian style, adding that his emergence as factional national chairman of APC has heralded the reversal of the fortunes of the party and by providence, that of Nigeria.
The Edo PDP chairman recalled how the Edo state House of assembly was locked and relocated to Government House, Benin during his years as governor of Edo State.
Orbih added: “For us in PDP, it is a celebration all the way to the liberation of Nigeria and Nigerians have began.”
