A former presidential spokesperson and prominent political strategist, Doyin Okupe, is dead.
His death was confirmed on Friday.
Details surrounding his passing are still sketchy.
Okupe, Seventy-two, was Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to President Olusegun Obasanjo and Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs to President Goodluck Jonathan.
He was also the Director-General of Peter Obi’s 2023 Presidential Campaign.
However, his political journey was marked by controversies.
In December 2022, Okupe stepped down from Obi’s campaign after being convicted of money laundering.
He later resigned from the Labour Party following the 2023 general election fallout and later became a vocal supporter of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, frequently engaging in political debates and commentary.
