A former presidential spokesman, Doyin Okupe, has revealed why he cannot support the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, again.

While appearing on Channels Television’s ‘Politics Today’ on Monday, Okupe said they agreed that a Southern president must emerge and all eminent Yoruba supported Peter Obi but it is wrong for the ex-governor to bring down the people who supported him.

He said, “I cannot support Peter Obi again. The reason is because what we agreed was that a Southern President must emerge.

“Baba Adebanjo called me and said if a Southern President must emerge, which zone must it emerge from? And I said South East. Let’s support them.

“And all eminent Yoruba people supported you, why now bring us down publicly? It’s wrong.”
