Doyin Okupe, the former Director-General of Peter Obi Presidential Campaign Organisation, has tendered a letter of his membership resignation from the Labour Party (LP).
Doyin made this announcement about his resignation in a letter obtained by THE WHISTLER on Monday.
In the letter, Doyin said, “I submit herewith my letter of resignation from the Labour Party with effect from today.
“You will recall that our flag bearer, Mr Peter Obi, myself and others left the PDP abruptly and had to look for a Special Purpose Vehicle in which to contest the 2023 Presidential Elections.
“The Labour Party, your good self, and other members of your executives provided us with this veritable platform with no burdensomeness whatsoever and for which we were extremely grateful.
“We did contest the election on the platform of the Labour Party and lost. This makes it exceedingly difficult for me to continue to stay in the Labour Party which is ideologically rooted in the left of the centre.”
