When I Was In APC, PDP, I Was Sponsoring Them; I Never Asked For Political Position – Kenneth Okonkwo

In a recent interview with Arise News, Kenneth Okonkwo, a lawyer and politician, clarified his stance on his relationship with Peter Obi and his political affiliations. Okonkwo emphasized that he has no personal grievances or problems with Obi, whom he considers a brother, and has never made any personal requests from him.

Okonkwo highlighted his history of supporting political parties without seeking personal gain, citing his time in the APC and PDP. He emphasized that he has always contributed financially to the parties and sponsored party activities without demanding any political positions.

Okonkwo dismissed rumors that he plans to return to the APC, stating that it’s ridiculous to suggest he would go back to a party that has “inflicted Nigeria with so much trouble.” He referenced Charly Boy’s description of the APC and PDP as “sniper and otapiapia” (meaning toxic and harmful), emphasizing that he shares the same view.

This interview aims to set the record straight on Okonkwo’s political affiliations and his relationship with Obi, demonstrating his commitment to the Labour Party and his disassociation from the APC.
