Kenneth Okonkwo, veteran Nollywood actor and spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council, has stated that Mr. Peter Obi, the party’s flag bearer is not only an incorruptible politician but also cannot be compared to his co-contestants.
Speaking on Channels TV programme, Okonkwo said: “Peter Obi, it is not only that he
is not corrupt; he is incorruptible compared to candidates of other parties.
“Whenever you are talking about corruption, you just have to look down for people who can make honest mistakes just because human beings are not God.
“But when you talk about corruption, the Oba of Benin looked at my principal and said, “your integrity goes before you.

“My principal is the type that wouldn’t even accept a plot of land due to him as a former governor, Peter Obi wouldn’t even accept pension due to him.
“You don’t compare my principal with Atiku or Tinubu when you talk of misappropriation.”
On the conviction of Doyin Okupe, Director-General of the campaign council by the court on money laundering charges, Okonwko averred that people might have made honest mistakes. Nevertheless, he insisted that his party was still better than other.
“You can say some people in Labour Party have made honest mistakes by the judgement of the court but have you ever seen honesty added to those gentlemen?
“Go to the court of public opinion and you won’t find it,” he said.
