Nollywood actor and chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Kenneth Okonkwo, has urged Nigerians not to vote for the former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, during the 2027 presidential election.

He gave the advice recently while appearing as a guest on a social-media-based news platform, Symfoni TV.

According to the veteran thespian, any vote cast for Obi, who is the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), is a vote for President Bola Tinubu.

He further clarified that nobody forced Obi to enter the ADC, adding that he left the party because he did not want to take part in the party’s primary.

Speaking on the programme, Okonkwo said: “It’s either you are working for Tinubu directly or indirectly because when you divide the votes of some of the coalition or the opposition, you are still making Tinubu win.

“Nobody forced Obi to enter the ADC. He entered on his own, and one week to the closure of time, he left and gave reasons. What reason was that?

“You cannot compete in primaries and you want to be a president of a challenged country.

“Let me tell you the truth, in 2027, anybody voting for Peter Obi is voting for Tinubu. Don’t say that I didn’t tell you.”
