Nollywood actor cum politician, Kenneth Okonkwo, has announced the end of his relationship with the Julius Abure-led National Working Committee of the Labour Party (LP).

According to Kenneth Okonkwo, a new Nigeria is the priority, noting that he prefers to lose doing the right thing than win doing the wrong thing.

Okonkwo was the spokesperson for the Labour Party Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council in the 2023 election.

The veteran actor spoke via a post on his X account on Tuesday, May 21, 2024.

Kenneth Okonkwo described the current Abure-led NWC of the Labour Party as another incompetent and corrupt association, just like the APC he left before.

To him, the national convention organised by Abure is nothing but criminality and corruption.

The post reads: “I am suspending my relationship in all ramifications with the purported Abure-led National Working Committee of Labour Party.

For me, it’s either a new Nigeria or nothing. I prefer to lose doing the right thing to winning doing the wrong thing.

Nothing can wash out the criminality, corruption, and incompetence with which the purported National Convention was purportedly organised by Abure.

I did not leave the comfort of a ruling party APC because I believe that they are incompetent and dishonest only to come and join another incompetent and corrupt association, which is the current Abure led National Working Committee of Labour Party.”
