Kenneth Okonkwo, the former spokesman for the Labour Party (LP) Presidential Campaign Council, has formally resigned from the party.
Okonkwo announced that his resignation will take effect on February 25, 2025.
In a statement, the Nollywood veteran explained that LP has been affected by ongoing internal disputes and leadership challenges.
He pledged to collaborate with other concerned Nigerians to find a way forward for the country in terms of governance.
The statement reads: “My entrance to 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 realised within Labour Party as presently constituted.
“This resignation takes effect from the 25th of February, 2025, which marks the second anniversary of the presidential election of 2023, after which I will be at liberty to join other well-meaning, and like minded Nigerians in charting a great future of good governance for this great country blessed by God.”
