PETER OBI NEVER BELIEVED IN LABOUR PARTY IDEOLOGY- DOYIN OKUPE. (PHOTO).


 Peter Obi never believed in Labour Party ideology ā€“ Doyin Okupe


A former director-general of the Labour Party presidential campaign, Doyin Okupe, has said the partyā€™s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, never believed in the ideologies of the party.


Okupe, who said the LP was just a special purpose vehicle (SPV) for the presidential election, spoke on Arise Televisionā€™s ā€˜The Morning Showā€™.


Okupe resigned his membership of the LP in January, on the grounds of ideological differences.


Hey said his membership of the party ended the moment Obi lost the election.


According to him, ā€œThe LP for us ā€” for Peter Obi and I ā€” and those in the leadership of the movementā€¦ The party was a special purpose vehicle (SPV). I have never been a labour person, I have never operated on the left before but we needed a platform and this was the only platform readily available to us.


ā€œWe thought that if we won the electionā€¦ there are no fast and hard rules about ideologies. You can always find a shade between the left and the right. You can always move to the centre.


ā€œWe were hoping and praying that if we won, we would find a way to come to some consensus with the labour.


ā€œPeter Obi is not a labour person. He is not a leftist person, he is a trader, he is a businessman just like me. I am a liberal democrat, I believe in liberal democracy, I believe in free enterprise.


ā€œI am not a social worker. As far as Iā€™m concerned, my membership of labour expired the moment we lost that election.ā€


Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the Labour Party in the build up to the 2023 Presidential election.
