Kenneth Okonkwo, the former spokesperson for the Labour Party’s presidential campaign council, has announced his resignation from the party-effective February 25, 2025.
Citing persistent internal conflicts and leadership challenges within the party, Okonkwo declared that after this date he will be free to join other like-minded Nigerians dedicated to the pursuit of good governance.
In his statement, he emphasized his commitment to a politics of integrity:
“I entered politics to champion good governance and to help transform Nigeria into a nation of incorruptible leaders. Unfortunately, that vision can no longer be achieved within the Labour Party as it currently stands. With the party essentially in disarray, I feel compelled to resign my membership in honor of all the Nigerians who stood by us in our most trying moments.
I remain loyal to the Nigerian people and will continue to fight for a better future in my political journey.” His departure marks a definitive break from a party he believes has lost its way, as he prepares to align himself with others who share his vision for a transformed Nigeria.
