The former Director General of Peter Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organization, Doyin Okupe, has dumped the Labour Party.<\/p>\n

Okupe, in his resignation letter, shared with newsmen on Monday, cited ideological differences post-2023 election as the basis for his departure from the party.<\/p>\n

He explained that he sees no reason to remain in the party after its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, lost the 2023 election.<\/p>\n

The letter reads: \u201cI submit herewith my letter of resignation from the Labour Party with effect from today. You will recall that our flag bearer, Mr Peter Obi, myself and others left the PDP abruptly and had to look for a Special Purpose Vehicle in which to contest the 2023 Presidential Elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Labour Party, your good self, and other members of your executives provided us with this veritable platform with no burdensomeness whatsoever and for which we were extremely grateful.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe did contest the election on the platform of the Labour Party and lost. This makes it exceedingly difficult for me to continue to stay in the Labour Party which is ideologically rooted in the left of the center.<\/p>\n

\u201cI 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish to thank you in particular and other members of the leadership of the party for the cordiality and respect accorded to me as the Director General of the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organization.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish you and the party success in your future endeavors. Long live the Labour Party. Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Your brother, friend and compatriot, Omooba (Dr Doyin Okupe, Former Director General Obi-Datti Campaign Organization.\u201d<\/p>\n
