News Update

Former presidential spokesperson Doyin Okupe has passed away at the age of 72.

His death was confirmed on Friday, 7th March, 2025.

Sources close to the family revealed that Dr. Okupe had been critically ill in the weeks leading up to his demise.

His death has been linked to Cancer. Okupe had a history of prostate cancer, first diagnosed 16 years ago, and later battled sarcoma in his right shoulder.

In October 2023, he was hospitalized with prostate cancer and was flown to Israel for treatment. However, it was learned that his condition did not improve as he and his family had hoped.

Okupe, who previously served as the Director-General of Peter Obi’s Presidential Campaign, was forced to step down from the role following a court conviction for money laundering.
