As reactions continue to trail the pronouncement of the appeal court of Abuja on Monday on the protracted crisis bedeviling the Edo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, a critical actor in the fighting to restore dignity and the rule of law to the party, Chief Dan Osi Orbih has reacted.
While speaking exclusively to Truthlive.net on Tuesday, Orbih, the national vice chairman of the main opposition PDP asserted that all would be well with the party in a short while.
According to the former chairman of the Edo state PDP, “the appeal court has said that it is the responsibility of the political party to determine its delegates and not their responsibility.
He said: “You know, the issues with our party are not really what I should be talking about on the pages of newspapers and fighting dirty in public, but I know very soon all will be well with the party and all our faithful party members will be happy”.
Orbih, who was adjudged the best opposition party chairman in his years as the Edo State PDP chairman and received an international award in 2021 as “African Defender of Democracy” from the UK based International organization, Ebony Ambassadors LLC, emphasized that the rule of law must be allowed to take its true cause in Edo State politics and Nigeria in general.
In his words: “I know yesterday,s Abuja Court of Appeal pronouncement is of great concern to our party loyal members. The judgment says it is the internal affairs of a political party to determine its delegates”.
“My response is simple, I have told our members that they should not worry. We are on top of the situation and everything will end well.
