    Peter Obi: Okpebholo Spoke Like An Illiterate – Kenneth Okonkwo

    Lawyer and politician, Kenneth Okonkwo has criticised Edo Governor Monday Okpebholo over his comments on Peter Obi, saying they are unconstitutional and illiterate.

    Okpebholo sparked controversy recently when he said that Obi should seek security clearance before entering Edo State.

    While appearing on Arise TV’s ‘The Morning Show’ on Monday, Okonkwo referenced a part of the Nigerian Constitution which gives citizens the right to move to any part of the country.

    “Let me state what Section 41 says clearly. That every citizen of Nigeria shall be entitled to move freely (FREELY underlined) throughout Nigeria, and to reside in any part thereof…

    “If you put it into context with Edo State, it simply means no citizen of Nigeria can be expelled from Edo State or denied entry into Edo State, or exit therefrom.

    “And every citizen of Nigeria has the right to move freely in Edo State.

    “So, what the governor said is unconstitutional, it is illegal, it is irresponsible, and it is largely illiterate,” Okonkwo stated.
