Entertainers are learning the hard way that the world of politics is anything but make-believe.
They are dazed: ‘I have a dream’ sleepwalk is leading nowhere but the cold and rude waters of wakefulness.
The bunch of Dayo Adeneye, Kenny St Best, Julius Agwu, Tony Tetuila, 9ice and Funke Adesiyan have all lost out.
Just like Desmond who won his ticket, all were looking bright for Kenneth Okonkwo until the eleventh hour when he backed out.
Kenneth Okonkwo backed out of PDP primary slated for the 6th of Dec, 2014 as the state chapter of the PDP jettisoned zoning in Nsukka/Igbo Eze south Federal Constituency.
Following the Nsukka/ Igboeze south stakeholders meeting at the Governor’s lodge on the 3rd of December, 2014 where the Governor of Enugu State openly endorsed the former chairman of the party, Vitta Abah, who is from Nsukka East in contradiction to the zoning arrangement which ought to zone the House of Reps ticket to Nsukka west.
Barr. Kenneth Okonkwo (Andy) who is from Nsukka west withdrew from the PDP primary election. He thanked all his fans, friends and family for their support during his campaign.
