The 2023 Presidential Candidate under the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has described late Dr. Doyin Okupe as an active figure in the nation’s political space and a man who desired a better Nigeria.
Obi said this while reacting to the death of the former spokesperson of the ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, who died today.
His statement reads; “With great sadness this morning, I received the shocking news of the death of my dear elder brother, Dr. Doyin Okupe. On behalf of the family and the Obidient family, I sincerely mourn his passing.
“Dr. Okupe was an active figure in the nation’s political space and a man who desired a better Nigeria.
“His death is a profound loss – not only to his family and loved ones but to all of us.
“I would therefore like to urge members of the Obidient Movement and other groups to pray for the eternal repose of Dr. Okupe’s soul and to remember his family during these trying times.
“May God Almighty, who called him home, grant him eternal rest and grant his family, and all of us, the fortitude to bear this sad and irreplaceable loss.
“May God Almighty bless his family always. – PO”
