PRESIDENT TINUBU MOURNS PRINCE DOYIN OKUPE

President Bola Tinubu extends his heartfelt condolences to the family, friends and associates of Prince Doyin Okupe, a medical doctor, politician, communicator and strategist who played a significant role in Nigeria's political landscape.

A prominent son of Iperu-Remo in Ogun State, Prince Okupe served as President Goodluck Jonathan's senior Special Assistant on public affairs and President Olusegun Obasanjo's special assistant on media.

During his political career of over three decades, Okupe served as the National Publicity Secretary of the National Republican Convention (NRC). He was prominent in the United Nigeria Congress Party (UN), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Accord Party, of which he was the national leader.

He was most recently the Director-General of the Labour Party Presidential Campaign for the 2023 election.

Prince Okupe made notable contributions to the medical field as the co-founder of the Royal Cross Medical Centre, Lagos, and the publisher of Life Mirror, a health-focused newspaper.

President Tinubu recalls Dr Okupe as a bold and articulate advocate for national development, expressing deep sorrow over his ing at a time when his wealth of experience and insight were still invaluable to the nation.

The President also commiserates with the government and people of Ogun State, particularly the Iperu-Remo community, who have lost an esteemed son and leader.

He recognises Prince Okupe's enduring impact on his home state and the deep void his ing leaves in the hearts of those who came in direct with him.

President Tinubu prays that God will grant repose to the departed patriot's soul and comfort all

Peter Obi @PeterObi

With great sadness this morning, I received the shocking news of the death of my dear elder brother, Dr. Doyin Okupe. On behalf of the family and the Obidient family, I sincerely mourn his ing.

Dr. Okupe was an active figure in the nation’s political space and a man who desired a better Nigeria.

His death is a profound loss - not only to his family and loved ones but to all of us.

I would therefore like to urge of the Obidient Movement and other groups to pray for the eternal repose of Dr. Okupe’s soul and to his family during these trying times.

May God Almighty, who called him home, grant him eternal rest and grant his family, and all of us, the fortitude to bear this sad and irreplaceable loss.

May God Almighty bless his family always. - PO

Prince Dr. Dapo Abiodun, CON @DapoAbiodunCON

Fare Thee Well, Dr. Adedoyin Ajibike Okupe 🕊️

We deeply mourn the ing of Dr. Adedoyin Ajibike Okupe, a patriot, statesman, and proud son of Ogun State. His demise, coming soon after the transition of the Alaperu of Iperu Remo, Oba Adeleke Idowu-Basibo, is a profound personal loss.

Dr. Okupe was a principled leader who played a vital role in Nigeria’s democratic journey. He served in various capacities, including Special Assistant to President Obasanjo, Senior Special Assistant to President Jonathan, and as a respected media strategist. Though trained as a medical doctor, he made lasting contributions to politics, governance, and public discourse.

Even in his later years, despite health challenges, he remained committed to advocating for a better Nigeria. His intellect, humility, and dedication will be greatly missed.

We pray that Almighty God grants his family the strength to bear this loss. May his soul rest in peace. Amen. 🕊️

Obese people often have health problems like High blood pressure, Type 2 diabetes, stroke,gouts,some form of cancer, constant t pains etc.
We must all try to never get fat by exercising more and eating less.
