Veteran Nollywood actor, Kenneth Okonkwo has berated some Nigerians buying fuel for as much as N1000 per litre compared to N140 per litre a couple of years ago.

In a post on his official X handle on Monday, the 2023 spokesman for the Labour Party presidential campaign slammed some citizens, insisting that just N140 per litre during ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration in 2012 led to protests.

The post with the headline, ‘It shall not be well with the wicked’ read in parts; “Like play, like play, Nigerians who stood against N140 per litre at Ojota years back are now paying N1000 a litre after hours on the queue under same people that led the protest.”

9News reports that Kenneth Okonkwo resigned from the Labour Party in July, citing differences between him and his former principal and party presidential flag bearer, Peter Obi.
