Video: ‘If Judiciary Fails To Write Justice, Ignorant Men Will Write It With Blood’ – Kenneth Okonkwo

Nollywood actor cum Labour Party (LP) chieftain, Kenneth Okonkwo, has said the judiciary must be careful in delivering justice to avoid chaos in the country.

Naija News reports that the thespian made this known in a snippet shared on his X handle while speaking on reasons for military coups and political party’s quest to seek justice after an election is marred with irregularities.

Recall that two African countries, Niger Republic and Gabon, are still suffering the effect of military coup and democracy is yet to return.

According to Kenneth, military coups are caused by sit-tight leaders and rigging of elections.

Therefore, Nigeria’s judiciary must rise and do the right to avoid any unconstitutional change of power in the country.

He wrote: “This is a turning point in the democratic journey in Africa. Military coups are caused by sit-tight leaders and rigging of elections. We must all rise and do the right thing to avoid any unconstitutional change of power in Nigeria. Happy weekend, and God bless”

Tribunal Ruling Does Not Matter

Meanwhile, Kenneth Okonkwo has said that the declaration of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal does not matter if the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) does not upload the full and unmanipulated results of the February 25 poll.

Okonkwo stated this during an interview on Arise News.

The LP chieftain called INEC a “failed organization that cannot even live up to the dictates of the law.”

He said that the electoral body was supposed to provide the results of the election from all polling units, stating section 62, subsections 2 and 3 of the Electoral Act.

He further stated that INEC failed to deliver on this as the results, months after the election, have still not been properly uploaded.
