The director-general of the Labour Party presidential campaign organisation during the 2023 general election, Doyin Okupe has tendered a resignation letter to the party leadership.
Okupe shared the letter on his social media page on Monday, stating that the resignation takes immediate effect.
He said the ideological conflict between himself and the Labour Party informed his decision though he was instrumental during the party’s campaign ahead of last year’s presidential election.
According to Okupe, Labour Party is ‘ideologically rooted in the left of the center.”
“I have been a rightist and a liberal democrat all my entire life. It is therefore this ideological conflict that makes me seek an exit so that I may continue my political activities with liberalism, sincerity and freedom,” his letter said.
