Ace Nollywood actor cum politician, Kenneth Okonkwo, has opined that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has upgraded from deceiving people through lies to bewitching people through enchantment.

Naijaonpoint reports that Okonkwo made this known on Monday, during an interview on Channels Television’s ‘Sunrise Daily’, programme.

The filmmaker accused President Bola Tinubu of causing the crisis in Rivers State, which led to declaring a state of emergency for six months.

Okonkwo berated Tinubu for emergency rule in Rivers State while ignoring the insecurity in Benue and Niger states.

He said, “The governor has said before now that he can do everything for peace. So this is not the first time he’s saying it. He’s simply reiterating it.

“And the governor even after the Supreme Court judgment, still said the same thing that he would abide by everything the Supreme had ordered, and he started immediately abiding by it.

“Why was the declaration of state of emergency in Rivers State in the first place? There was no crisis in Rivers State. What we had was political lockdown.

“Over 200 people were killed in Benue State, Boko Haram has been liquidation our officers and citizens of Nigeria, more than 500 people died of natural disaster in Niger State, the president did not think for extra-ordinary measure.

“In Rivers State where there was no crisis, no political riot and then you declared state of emergency. This is what is most annoying about it. The president is using the Supreme Court judgment to even talk about state of emergency. That is bewitchment. APC has upgraded from deceiving people through lies to bewitching people through enchantment.

“It was President Tinubu initiated the crisis in Rivers State, when there was none. How many people were killed or maimed.”
