Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A veteran Nollywood actor and chieftain of the Labour Party, LP, Bar Kenneth Okonkwo, has accused the All Progressive Congress, APC, of building a skyscraper of failure on insecurity and corruption.<\/p>\n

Okonkwo decried the level of corruption in the APC government, saying he did not vote for animals to begin to manifest as witches stealing the country\u2019s money.<\/p>\n

The veteran actor stated this while fielding questions on the Channels TV Politics Today program.<\/p>\n

He lamented the fact that the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, and students have been at home for eight months, with no end in sight.<\/p>\n

\u201cAPC is bad because there is no sound coming out of APC, what you hear is noise; and you know when people make noise, they exchange ignorance through argument.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t subscribe to the fact that ASUU would be at home, students at home, my younger ones denied education for months and there is no end in sight; that was not the reason I entered APC.<\/p>\n

\u201cI entered APC because they promised me they will tackle security after the failure of PDP; give it to PDP they failed, they acknowledged, they apologised. APC came pretending that they will build on what PDP did, and yes they are building a skyscraper of failure on it because the security that was limited to northeast has metastasized and has swept all over nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the issue of corruption, one person who is supposed to be the custodian of the money of Nigeria, was alleged to have stolen N109bn; the proveable one. You can imagine in the APC government, you are witnessing termite eating documents, monkeys swallowing money, snakes becoming money eaters in APC government.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did not vote for animals to begin to manifest as witches stealing our money. So in the APC government, everybody has become a thief including animals\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n
