The former Director -General of the Labour Party (LP) Presidential Campaign Organisation, stated that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was the most qualified candidate in the 2023 Presidential elections.
Tinubu emerged victorious, with Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) coming second and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) placing third.
Okupe expressed these options during an interview on a major TV network on Friday, June 7.
His words: “Let me tell you, all of the people that actually ran for President in 2023, by the benefit of highlight, Bola Tinubu is the best.
“I have seen Peter Obi, I have been with Atiku Abubakar, I also knew Bola Tinubu many years ago.
“I have not seen him in the last seven to eight years, but he is the best in terms of capability, commitment and knowledge. People keep underestimating what he did in Lagos”.
Okupe also urged Nigerians not to be quick to judge President Tinubu’s administration.
He said, “You can never and should never judge this administration like you judged other administrations, because this is abnormal situation in which this administration came to life.
“After such a prostrate economy for eight years, the government and governance were abandoned. Things became so bad. That was the point at which this administration came in, people are forgetting”.
