Kenneth Okonkwo says he’s still a member of Labour Party.


I am still a full fledged member of the Labour Party. I was upset that Peter Obi did not deal with Abure after he disobeyed him by going ahead with the fake convention. I am still with the LP and ready to consolidate in the LP.

— Kenneth Okonkwo

“There is a difference between resistance and rioting, I support resistance, I support protest but I do not support violence.
We must have to find a way to inflate pãin to those that are inflating påins to Nigerians without v!olence”.

"If Peter Obi is not ready to fight these people to the point of putting his life on the line, then, he should step aside ahead of 2027."

-Kenneth Okonkwo on AriseTv.

Veteran Nollywood actor and politician Kenneth Okonkwo has denied reports that he dumped the Labour Party.

Okonkwo said he’s still a full-fledged member of the party.

He stated this on Tuesday while speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme.

“First of all, let me say I am embarrassed by your comment. I am just hearing it from your media station that I dumped the Labour Party. And I put up the statement that I made so that I wouldn’t be misconstrued. So, where did you get that from? It’s not certainly from the statement that I made. I am still a full-fledged member of the Labour Party,” he stated.

When asked if he’s still a member of the Labour Party, he replied in the affirmative: “Yes, absolutely.”

Okonkwo continued: “There’s no crisis in the Labour Party as it relates to me. There’s crisis in the Labour Party as relates to the NWC, which failed to organise an all-inclusive convention. And I thought that the leader ought to have taken a decisive decision to ensure, having seen that the convention did not hold against his instruction, that there’s an organised and all-inclusive convention according to court judgement and past agreement.”

Okonkwo, a chieftain of the Labour Party, had announced his decision to cut ties with Mr Peter Obi, the presidential candidate, as well as the party, due to concerns over Obi’s leadership style and inability to confront national issues.

He also questioned Obi’s ability to secure electoral victories and confront the country’s ‘kakistocrats’ and ‘kleptocrats’ head-on.

The veteran actor emphasised that he needed a more decisive, bold, and brave leader with integrity and team spirit to achieve his vision for Nigeria.

Lol, this one don dey sound like a bad joke.

Kenneth wey don dey play hide and seek with his own party. Abeg, who still dey follow am? This na the same man wey no fit carry his own shadow talk less of a political party.

Na so dem dey stay for one corner dey shout “Obidient” while the real matter dey pass them by. If dem no quick wake up, na so dem go dey use spoon chop their own defeat come 2027.

Bia Andy Okeke, you dey talk too much.
Peter Obi won't kill himself for you. If majority of Nigerians are not wise enough to vote him in 2027, let TINUBULATION EBIN PAWA continue.

If you think you can do better than Peter Obi, then feel free to contest for the presidency. Obi is not blocking anyone.

Finally, you can't blackmail Peter Obi emotionally. Ask Mbaka, when he tried to blackmail Peter Obi to donate to him. Peter Obi asked him to mention the project that needs the donation and Mbaka could not mention the project, he started calling Obi a stingy man.

This one has a permanent seat in the land of make-believe.

Still a member? Maybe he’s just auditioning for a role in the next political drama.

How can you claim allegiance to a party that’s lost its way?

LP has become a circus, and it seems even the clowns are confused about their script.

With all the disarray in the party, what exactly is Kenneth hoping to achieve?

If Ken had his way, he'd sweep Obi under the rug

He still repeated it here that, Obi being his personal sef, would have to step aside for another minnow in 2027

He sure didn't regret the earlier statement he made

All politicians are the same. For example, Dino Melaye became a senator during his first tenure while he was with APC, running against Smart Adeyemi, who was then in PDP. In his second tenure, Dino contested against the same Smart Adeyemi, who had switched to APC, while Dino was now with PDP.

Other examples include Obi and Wike, among others (so as not to list all the politicians). So, are they not all the same regardless of their current party affiliation?

Lol. His problem is Peter Obi. He threw Obi under the bus in the same interview.


Peter Obi can't put his life on the line. He is simply not man enough. Even as at now, after declaring war, he has japa-ed to the UK before the start of protest.

How will those that have abuse him because of his fact about obi see this news like this



All these neophyte that just completed their utme in Igbo believe they understand politics, they will be discussing politics like a gossip talk


If Peter obi had win the election, what Tinubu supporters are doing will be a childplay compare to what these obidients m0rons would be doing to who criticize their mediocre god



If not for Tinubu lack of foresight on fuel subsidy those m0rons would have gone to where they belong to, their Biafra mantra

Perhaps Kenneth Okonkwo was right. I said the same thing sometime back. The allegations against the Abure led LP excos must he investigated and sanctions meted out.

But why are you upset that he spoke facts about the wickedness and visionlessness of Peter Obi when he was Governor?

You think if Obi was President and he removed subsidy on the 1st day as promised, that he would care about Nigerians suffering or not?

Do you know what it means for a Governor to be called a bad Omen, and for a countdown to the end of his tenure to begin from almost 3years?
