Kenneth Okonkwo, a former spokesman for the Labour Party presidential campaign council, has called on President Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar, and Peter Obi to step aside ahead of the 2027 elections. Okonkwo believes that these individuals have failed Nigerians and are not fit to contest in the next election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking on Arise TV, Okonkwo emphasized the need for new faces in the political landscape, stating that the ruling party and opposition have both failed. He criticized the opposition for not forming a united front against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Okonkwo argued that if opposition members in the House of Representatives had come together, they could have produced the speaker and vice speaker. He stressed the importance of consolidation and alliances among opposition parties to work together effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Okonkwo’s statement has sparked debate about the need for fresh leadership and the effectiveness of the current political class. His call for new faces in the 2027 elections reflects a desire for change and a break from the status quo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2027 elections are still three years away, but the political landscape is already taking shape. Okonkwo’s comments have added to the conversation about the future of Nigerian politics and the need for a new generation of leaders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
