Dr Doyin Okupe has tendered his resignation as the Director General of the presidential campaign organization of the Labour Party for the 2023 Presidential election.
Okupe who was a one-time adviser to former President Goodluck Jonathan tendered his resignation on Tuesday, December 20, barely 24 hours after a Federal High Court in Abuja convicted him of money laundering.
In a letter dated December 20 and addressed to the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, Okupe said it is better not to allow his personal interest to distract the party’s campaign and has decided to step aside.
