Okonkwo argued that neither the All Progressives Congress (APC) nor the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are capable of improving Nigeria’s situation and instead are contributing to the country’s decline. He emphasized the need for a strong political party with a robust grassroots presence and a decisive leader to challenge the dominance of the PDP and APC.

The actor expressed disappointment in the Labour Party’s recent developments and Obi’s failure to seize the opportunity to establish a party of integrity. He was particularly troubled by Obi’s claim that he had not promised to build a strong LP but was focused on solving Nigeria’s problems, arguing that a solid political base is crucial for overcoming opposition parties.

Additionally, Okonkwo criticized Obi for not distancing himself from the Labour Party National Working Committee’s ongoing issues and criminal activities, as well as failing to support the Labour Union’s efforts to advocate for workers’ welfare.
