Kenneth Okonkwo Reverses Support for Peter Obi's Debt Claims
Kenneth Okonkwo, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), publicly retracted his previous defense of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), concerning allegations of debt left by Obi during his tenure as governor of Anambra State. In an appearance on the program Sunday Politics on TVC, Okonkwo stated that he was misled and can no longer support his earlier claims that Obi did not leave any debts, unpaid salaries, pensions, or gratuities upon leaving office.
He emphasized his willingness to change his stance when presented with new facts from the Anambra State Government. Okonkwo had previously assured Nigerians during the 2023 election campaign that Obi was not indebted.
Currently, he serves as the spokesman for the Presidential Campaign Council of the ADC's candidate, Atiku Abubakar, for the 2027 election.
