Is this the end of PDP in Edo State?

Last Week at the Samuel Ogbemudia stadium in Benin City Hundreds of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Members in Edo Sate decamped to the Action Congress (AC)lead by Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, the executive Governor of Edo State.
Although, the members of AC are jubilating over the decamping, however, some political think tank do believe that instead of the decampment being the end of the PDP that it should rather be seen as the begin of trouble and end game for the Action Congress. There reasons are, (a)That it is the trouble makers in PDP that decamped to AC (b) That they decamped because they were sure they would not be nominated for second term in office by the PDP and that Oshiomholes' AC has assured them of automatic ticket. (c) The decamped members have aquired/stolen so much money from their various councils that they will come into AC and buy power and position. If the original members of AC resist them the decampees we start their usual faction politics which is their hallmark thereby destroying AC.
The voters are watching carefully.
