Doyin Okupe, the erstwhile campaign DG to Labour party presidential candidate, Peter Obi in the 2023 general elections has passed on at age 72.
Jkcynonews gathered that Dr. Okupe had been critically ill in the weeks leading up to his demise.
His health had reportedly deteriorated significantly, prompting concern among his loved ones and supporters.
It was confirmed that his death was linked to cancer.
We were reliably informed that Doyin had been battling prostate cancer for the past 16 years.
He was flown to Israel in 2023 for the treatment after which he later developed sarcoma in his right shoulder.
Unfortunately, some Nigerians don’t have much good things to say about him, especially after the roles he started playing after he was withdrawn as the LP campaign DG in 2023.
Below are few excepts from Nigerians..
“RIP Dr Doyin Okupe.
You had a chance to Die like a True Patriot but you sold out ln your Last Days FOR REASONS BEST KNOWN TO YOU. May God have mercy on your Soul.
I will hold on to the Good side of your Memories. Sun Reeee.. 😇💝🕊️”

Life is indeed short and unpredictable.
You may be here today and tomorrow you are gone.
Condolences to his family.
Pls let us all use this moment to reflect and remember that, in life and in death, having a good name and being a person of honour will always be better than anything else.”

I had a feeling something was off when he recently shifted to APC. That man was fighting for his life! He had cancer, and they used his health to manipulate him.
This world is deep! That’s why I didn’t rush to judge him. I chose to ignore the noise and stay focused on my support for Peter Obi.
When a person is battling for survival, they might do anything to stay alive. I wouldn’t be surprised if they promised him medical treatment abroad or some other lifeline.
APC is a den of deception—everything about that party reeks of evil. 😭
May God forgive him and receive his soul.”
Rest in peace…. Doyin Okupe.
Amen.
