A former Nollywood actor and spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council, Kenneth Okonkwo, has announced his resignation from the party.
In a press statement he released on Tuesday, Okonkwo said he decided because the party is not ready for the 2027 general election.
He also alleged that the party is suffering from internal and leadership crises.
He said, “My entrance into politics is for good governance, and I will continue to work for it to ensure that Nigeria becomes a great country of incorruptible men.”
“This aim can no longer be realized within the Labour Party as presently constituted.”
“Since the party is non-existent as presently constituted, I am constrained to resign my membership of the party.”
“To all Nigerians of goodwill who supported us when we needed them most, I pledge my continued loyalty to the Nigerian people in all I will decide to do in my political future.”
He also expressed his readiness to pitch his tent with another party.
