After dumping his party like a bad habit, popular actor, Kenneth Okonkwo has declared that he is still a member of the Labour Party.
Okonkwo stated this in an interview recently.
He said: “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.”
“As regards if I am still a member of the Labour Party, “Yes, absolutely.”
“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.”
For those who don’t know, Kenneth Okonkwo was the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi’s spokesperson in the 2023 general election.
