Doyin Okupe Makes ‘Body BillBoard’ After Soludo Removed Peter Obi’s Campaign Billboards

Peter Obi and Doyin Okupe

Former Director-General of the Labour Party (LP) Presidential Campaign Council, Doyin Okupe, has made a bold statement following the action of the Anambra State Governor, Charles Soludo.

Naija News earlier reported that Soludo through the Anambra Signage and Advertising Agency (ANSAA)  reportedly pulled down some of the billboards of Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

ANSAA reportedly removed the billboards at the weekend over the alleged inability of Peter Obi to pay the State Government.

Confirming the removal by its operatives, Managing Director ANSAA, Tony Ujubuonu, said one of the LP billboards was removed on Saturday but not on the orders of Soludo.

Ujubuonu had said: “Whatever that was removed was as a result of a challenge we had with the agent that erected the board.

”First and foremost is that the bridge you are talking about was having a Labour Party billboard. If you recall in August, we sent out a message to all political parties to pay up their campaign fees.

“There was a lot of hullabaloo about it. None of them has paid their own. So most of the parties that have not paid theirs that have adverts on government assets were removed. It has nothing to do with the governor.

In a subtle reaction to the development, Doyin Okupe via his Twitter page shared a video of himself rocking a hoodie with the inscription ‘I am Obidient’.

He also captioned the video: “Mobile Obident “Body BillBoard” even at 6 degrees centigrade!!”
