2015 Mistakes Haunt PDP – Kenneth Okonkwo Exposes Root Of Party’s Decline
Veteran Nollywood actor and politician, Kenneth Okonkwo, has criticized the current state of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), describing it as being at its lowest point ever.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The former Labour Party stalwart attributed the party’s ongoing decline to events in 2015, when some PDP members broke away to form the New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP) and teamed up with the All Progressives Congress (APC) to unseat their own party in the general elections.
According to Okonkwo, the failure of PDP leadership to take disciplinary action against those who betrayed former President Goodluck Jonathan laid the foundation for the party’s present woes.
In a statement shared via his (formerly Twitter) handle, the ex-presidential campaign spokesperson remarked:
“The lack of accountability for the 2015 rebellion institutionalized disloyalty in the PDP by 2023.”
He explained that in 2015, internal chaos rocked the PDP as seven governors and other top-ranking officials staged a dramatic walkout on President Jonathan during a rally, accusing the party of broken promises and betrayal. These defectors later aligned with the APC and successfully unseated their own party, leaving the PDP in opposition — where it remains today.
Okonkwo emphasized that the party’s refusal to sanction such acts of impunity has only encouraged further disunity, leading to its current political decline.
