Orbih Wants Egbesu Boys In South-South Regional Security Network

The National Vice-Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), South-South, Chief Dan Orbih has called on Governor Douye Diri of Bayelsa State to recruit the dreaded Egbesu Boys into a security outfit as part of a South-South regional security outfit.

Orbih made the call on Tuesday when he led the zonal executive team of the PDP on a visit to Governor Diri at the Government House, Yenagoa, on Tuesday.

While commending Governor Diri on his quick response to issues concerning the PDP, Chief Orbih said:

“The APC Federal Government’s unbridled appetite for Chinese loans has mortgaged the future of our country. The loans are not channelled to productive ventures but to rail construction to Niger Republic.

“At a time Nigerians are finding it extremely difficult to cope with APC inflicted hardship on our people, our economy is in shambles. Federal Government has failed in its constitutional responsibility of securing lives of our people.

“I want to commend you for taking positive steps in improving the security architecture of the state by your recent donations of operational vehicles to the various security agencies in Bayelsa state. We urge you to look seriously at the call for State Police or state security agency to protect our people.

“We are not short of manpower to secure our states and regions. The popular Egbesu Boys can ably be recruited to do the job, and they are more than capable,” Orbih said.

“The ship of state is drifting but the captain of the ship is in deep slumber rather than wake him up, those around him are muttering Sai Baba in self deceit. God help Nigeria.

“Our Party must rise up to the challenge of saving our democracy. We condemn the choice of known APC members for INEC appointment as commissioners. The greatest threat to our democracy is a partisan INEC that conducts inconclusive elections when APC is losing badly. We join patriotic Nigerians in calling on Mr President to sign the electoral bill. Even if they fail in every thing, they should not fail to sign the new electoral bill.

“Your Excellency, the PDP Governors achievements in the south south will be the political spring board for PDP renaissance. Continue your good work. God bless you”, he stated.

Responding, Governor Diri, commended the National Vice chairman for the role he played in the PDP winning Edo State from the APC in the recent governorship election describing Orbih and the Working Committee as a very agile one.

He expressed hope that with the kind of leadership in place that the PDP would win the 2023 presidential election.

The governor also promised to take Orbih’s message on insecurity to other governors of the zone for prompt action.
