2023: 'You Will Weep When Peter Obi Wins' - Doyin Okupe Condemns Critics

A former chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), Sam Amadi, has claimed that the Director-General of the Peter Obi presidential campaign council, Doyin Okupe is being accused of crimes he committed while working for a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign.

Naija News recalls that a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja had on Monday declared Okupe guilty of receiving over N200 million cash from former National Security Adviser (NSA). Col. Sambo Dasuki.

Justice Ijeoma Ojuwku, in a judgment, held that the action of Okupe, who is the first defendant in the suit filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) violated the Money Laundering Act.

The conviction had generated different views from individuals and opposition parties.

Reacting, Sam said the Labour Party campaign DG was trending on Twitter for crimes he committed while working for a presidential candidate of the main opposition party, saying the PDP members spreading the news were only mocking themselves.

A tweet on his Twitter handle reads, “Doyin Okupe is trending for a ‘crime’ he committed working for a PDP presidential campaign and PDP people are spreading the news gleefully.

“Hmm irony. You are actually mocking yourself. You are endorsing Buhari’s attack against you after the 2015 election for being a corrupt party”.
