Kenneth Okonkwo discusses next move after dumping APC
Legit.ng previously reported that the actor declared that he is in support of Peter Obi's Obidient movement even though he doesn't belong to a political party yet.
Kenneth Okonkwo had initially dumped the ruling APC over the party's decision to pick Senator Shettima as Asiwaju Tinubu's running mate, thereby flagging a Muslim-Muslim ticket.
Okonkwo said those tagging the Obidient movement as just a social media sensation were only saying that because they actually feel threatened by it.
