Following the decision of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to field Muslim-Muslum presidential candidates for the 2023 election, veteran Nollywood actor, Kenneth Okonkwo has quit his membership from the party.

This was revealed by the actor in a press statement released via his official Instagram page on Monday where he said the decision will permanently destroy the political viability of Northern Christians.

“If Muslims could voluntarily vote for southern presidents it is then a fallacy to insinuate that they cannot accept a northern Christian vice president,” part of the statement read.

“This will permanently destroy the political viability of Northern Christians in Nigeria if allowed to stand. This is in the addition to the failure to protect lives and properties of Nigerians which should be their primary responsibility. The country is also in shatters.”

In his words, he resigned his membership in the interest of equity, justice, fairness and peaceful co-existence among Nigerians.
