Kenneth Okonkwo, former spokesperson for the Labour Party, has urged prominent political figures like President Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, and Peter Obi to step aside for new leadership as Nigeria approaches the 2027 elections. In a recent appearance on Arise TV, Okonkwo highlighted the necessity of fresh faces in politics, criticizing both the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and the opposition for their failure to unite effectively.
He noted that, despite having a majority in the House of Representatives, opposition parties have not consolidated their power to challenge the ruling party. Okonkwo's remarks resonate with many Nigerians seeking change and reflect a growing demand for political renewal in the country. As the nation gears up for the upcoming elections, discussions around leadership and unity within the opposition continue to gain traction.
