Following the public membership resignation of veteran Nollywood actor and lawyer, Kenneth Okonkwo, from the All Progressives Congress on 11 July 2022, the actor has now pitched his tent with the Labour Party. Kenneth Okonkwo took to social media to announce that he had joined the Labour Party on 23rd August 2022. He called it an honour and a privilege to be welcomed by the party.
Mr Okonkwo resigned from the APC over the party’s Muslim-Muslim Ticket when presidential candidate of the APC, Bola Tinubu, a Southern Muslim, recently picked Kashim Shettima, a former governor of Borno State and Northern Muslim, as his running mate for the 2023 presidential election. The actor revealed that he joined the Labour Party to help enthrone good governance and achieve a new Nigeria. Mr Okonkwo thanked the Dynamics Ambassadors for Peter Obi (DAPO) for facilitating his defection to the Labour Party.
