Leader of the defectors and PDP Chairman of Chairmen, Mr. Osawaru Ekhator said he had to leave the PDP because it is a party of full of deceit.

He said all they know is to criticize without doing anything adding that after thorough examination of the entire Political environment in the State, they realized that PDP is a party that one cannot find a democrat.

On his part another defector and Ward Chairman of the PDP, Oniawu Igbogbo said they have been looking at the APC from afar and seen that the Comrade Governor has not been sleeping.

He said the Governor has been working and they have decided that they need to join the cloud of glory adding that any sensible person in Edo State should join the cloud of glory.

Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State who led APC leaders in the state to receive the decampees warned the PDP leaders fomenting trouble in the state that violence will consume them, saying those who are preaching violence should know that Edo State cannot be conquered by a bunch of criminals.

The Governor said his administration has the   capability to protect the People remarking that they will not go for anybody’s blood.

He recalled last weekend, that people who have nothing to offer and no stake in the state were rooting for violence, noting that even some who claimed to be pastors allowed their office to be used to organize meeting  where it was decided to unleash the mayhem which  received police support.

Oshiomhole noted, the Pastor collected money promising that he will take over the House of Assembly but failed adding that Contrary to their calculations, his team has shown that they are totally in charge.

He noted that they have presented their budget for 2015 when many PDP Governors are still struggling to prepare their budgets saying everything the opposition thinks he cannot do; they have long noted that his administration is doing it better.
