Comedian Okey Bakassi has fired back at Kenneth Okonkwo, saying the actor and lawyer is not in a position to criticize Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate. This comes after Okonkwo withdrew his membership from the Labour Party and lashed out at Obi, citing internal crises and Obi’s inability to build a strong platform.
Bakassi pointed out that Okonkwo has not won any elections in Nigeria, making his criticism of Obi’s leadership questionable. Okonkwo had claimed that Obi lacks the capacity to secure victory, even if he wins, and that he has lost confidence in Obi’s ability to build a winning party.
The comedian’s response highlights the ongoing debate within the Labour Party and the scrutiny of Obi’s leadership. Okonkwo’s withdrawal and criticism have sparked a heated discussion about the party’s future and Obi’s ability to lead it to victory.
