We Are No Longer Going To Keep Quiet For Anyone To Insult Tinubu – Doyin Okupe
A former Director-General of Peter Obi’s 2023 presidential campaign council, Doyin Okupe, has vowed that insults against President Bola Tinubu will no longer be tolerated.
Naija News reports that Okupe stated this while appearing on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday.
The former Labour Party (LP) chieftain said the South West will no longer watch people insult Tinubu.
According to him, Tinubu is the apple in the eyes of the people of the South West and must not be spoken about disdainfully.
He said, “From now on, we are no longer going to keep quiet for people who think they can just insult Bola Tinubu.
“Tinubu from the South West is the apple of our eyes. He is not doing wrong. If things are not looking well(now), they’ll look well because we know him.”
In related news, Doyin Okupe has stated that Nigerians will likely re-elect President Bola Tinubu in 2027 to complete a constitutionally allowed eight-year tenure, noting an “unwritten agreement” on rotational presidency between Nigeria’s southern and northern regions.
Okupe, who was a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday, expressed confidence in Tinubu’s leadership and argued that the President’s current efforts are setting the nation on a path to progress.
Okupe suggested that despite criticisms, Tinubu’s governance has shown promise and resilience, adding, “Former President Muhammadu Buhari didn’t perform well, but he completed his term.
“Tinubu, who is performing well, deserves his full eight years.”
He stated, “Nigerians will decide so. I am sure. Nigerians are reasonable, sensible people, not demanding too much from their leaders.
“If Bola Tinubu gives us light in 2027, if Bola Tinubu resolves this fuel crisis and this food crisis between now and that time, you’ll see that people will go on the streets and say it’s Bola or nobody.”
