Veteran actor, Kenneth Okonkwo, has claimed that former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, betrayed him amid internal party disputes.

Kenneth stated this in a viral interview with Symfoni.

Okonkwo, who was once a spokesperson of the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council, officially exited the party in February 2025.


According to him, Obi went against his advice and went back to support the embattled Julius Abure-led faction of the party.

Kenneth claimed that Obi was misled by LP executives who claimed that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had recognised them.

He said, “Any politician that knows what he’s doing cannot be betrayed by another.

“If there is anybody that betrayed the other, I can say it emphatically that Peter Obi betrayed me.

“The Julius Abure-led LP members lied to Obi that the Independent National Electoral Commission had accepted them and Obi surreptitiously went back to them but I told him: ‘Sir, you have made a public statement on integrity and even if INEC has accepted them, that is not a criterion for you to go back and start dealing with them because they have shown that they are not democratic. If you go back to them, they will destroy your political career and everything you have said about integrity will die.’”
