Popular Nollywood actor-turned-politician, Kenneth Okonkwo, has spoken out regarding the unveiling of the new ADC political coalition involving major opposition figures including Peter Obi, Atiku Abubakar, and Nasir El-Rufai.
The former Labour Party spokesperson described the unveiling of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) alliance as “the final downfall of APC and Tinubu’s grip on Nigeria.” Okonkwo’s comments come just days after the coalition was formally launched in Abuja, aiming to dethrone the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 presidential elections.
Okonkwo, who has switched political affiliations multiple times over the past few years — from APC to Labour Party and now allegedly to ADC — appears to support the opposition movement. His remarks suggest renewed confidence in a unified political front to challenge President Tinubu’s administration.
In his reaction, Okonkwo emphasized that “Nigeria has suffered too long under a one-party dominance that has only multiplied suffering and insecurity.” His public stance has, however, raised questions among Nigerians about his political consistency and true motivations.
Critics online are asking whether Kenneth Okonkwo is genuinely concerned about the nation's well-being or if he’s simply switching sides in pursuit of political relevance and power. Many view his frequent party changes with skepticism, labeling them as strategic moves for self-interest rather than ideological alignment.
Nevertheless, his support lends further weight to the coalition’s momentum. As more celebrities and public figures lend their voices to the growing anti-APC sentiment, the upcoming 2027 elections promise to be fiercely contested.
The coalition, according to its leaders, is not just about winning elections but restoring Nigeria’s democratic values. Whether Okonkwo’s involvement will help or harm that cause remains a topic of national discussion.
