Nigerians criticising me for supporting Tinubu’s government are ignorant: Okupe

Nigerians have been insulting Mr Okupe on X, formerly known as Twitter, for backing some of Mr Tinubu’s administration’s policies.

Former director-general of Peter Obi Presidential Campaign Organisation, Doyin Okupe, says those abusing and insulting him for supporting President Bola Tinubu’s economic recovery plan are ignorant.

In a statement on Monday, Mr Okupe, a former presidential spokesperson, said his attackers were mere political urchins with a penchant for insulting those who know more than them.

The former presidential spokesman said he had seen enough in the country and was not as narrow-minded as his critics.

He said the project of Nigeria was bigger than any person or political party and called on citizens to unite to move the country forward.
