Kenneth Okonkwo, a former spokesman for the Labour Party (LP) presidential campaign council, has called on President Bola Tinubu, former PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, and Peter Obi to step aside ahead of the 2027 elections.
Okonkwo told PulseNets that Tinubu, Obi, and Atiku are unfit to contest in the 2027 election, emphasizing their failure to meet the expectations of Nigerians.
In an interview with Arise TV, the Nollywood actor spoke to PulseNets, criticizing the opposition for not consolidating and working together against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to Okonkwo, “I completely agree with you that we need new faces, 100%, and that was why I have said that Atiku, Peter Obi, and Tinubu should step aside.
“The reason is that the ruling party has failed, and the opposition has failed. Are you aware that in the House of Representatives, you have more opposition members than the ruling class?

“I’m saying you don’t just finish an election, and the first thing you start talking about is the next election. You consolidate and form alliances amongst yourselves to work together as the opposition.
“If all the opposition members in the House of Representatives had come together, they would have produced the speaker and the vice,” Okonkwo told PulseNets.
