Opposition Must Unite for 2027 Election, Says Kenneth Okonkwo
LAGOS, 22 May 2025 – Nollywood actor and politician Kenneth Okonkwo has called for Nigeria’s opposition parties to unite ahead of the 2027 presidential election, warning that their division in 2023 cost them victory. Speaking on Arise TV’s Morning Show, Okonkwo stressed the need for a cohesive strategy to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
“Opposition made the mistake of dividing themselves in 2023. They must come together in 2027 to win the presidential election,” Okonkwo said, urging political leaders to set aside differences for the greater good.
In a scathing critique, Okonkwo described the APC as an “Association of Professional Criminals,” accusing the party of mismanaging Nigeria’s affairs. His remarks come amid growing public frustration over economic challenges and governance issues.
Okonkwo, a vocal advocate for political reform, encouraged viewers to watch the full interview for his in-depth analysis of the state of the nation. The discussion, aired on Arise TV, covered critical issues facing Nigeria and the path forward for opposition politics.
As the 2027 election looms, Okonkwo’s call for unity could spark renewed efforts among opposition factions to form a formidable coalition.
