Everyday labour party proves they are in for a good governance, when you have a leader who is corrupt you expel him not celebrate him like they do in APC... This is the kind of political party Nigeria need in government

Fake news

They tried everything thing to link PO & his team with corruption they couldn't find any. Then the called these clowns to cook this baseless allegation. We r OBIDIENTS, we need no political moles in this movement, therefore we expel Ashade from the Obidient movement.

We refused to be distracted

Fake News.

Please put contest to your reportage... A faction of The labor party in Ogun state..... You are doing diobolical reportage

FAKE STORY.

They will soon expel Peter Obi himself by the time they realise his ambition is self serving.

Tinubu dollars have captured Ogun LP. What a shame.

Fake News Una too mumu for this App

This is a good example for other party to emulate. Constitution is no respecter of anybody either of the country or party. This is a deterrent for whoever what to do such.

Ogun State acclaimed Labour Party has become the national executive of the Party. Emi lokan is trying we know the game. Peter Obi all the way.

And they hope to have party agents in all the polling units across the country.

The jungle don dey mature. They will all chop breakfast las las.

They have subtly began to sabotage Obi, trust them to ur detriment the Hausas were never mistaking when they gave them that befitting name.

I keep saying this, Tinubu/Atiku cannot win this election. Don't waste your vote! VotePeterObiForPresident2023 votelabourparty2023

This man no get shame at all

Brown envelope journalism by SR once again, this is a copy and paste work as I read the exact write up in gossip blogs. First,you mustn't be a card carrying member to be on PCC list. So both the Ogun LP chairman & SR apparently on Tinubu's payroll. Poor hatchet job abiodun_swish

How can you be DG and you refused to pay dues, yet you want to oversee other people's dues. It's not good na. E no go work. Abeg make una shift am sharp sharp

Politics is a profession here, just learn a better way to lie to people and get urself a chance to change ur family... But many guys fall for them thinking they have found saint. Obi is not better anyone in politics just vote for ur choice of candidate, APC,LP or PDP

This generation wants to destroy the youths. Why are they so obsessed with destroying the future of young people? What is the problem? Why are they so evil?

charley_me2 This information is fake. Until Doyin or labor party’s handle post this. Why are you guys trying so hard on this failed propaganda? What’s all this

Opposition trying hard to disrupt Labour Party's movement to victory. God shall put them to shame 🙏

May he find grace to repent. I yet love your courage to identify the good. I love that. Please refer to Titus 2:11 and Proverb 28:13,20-23. 'For HIS mercy endures for ever.' (Psalm 136.)

You should know that some people are working against the party if you're found wanting you should leave before some damage is done

The goal is voting for Peter Obi. I don't care LP is doing

Misleading!!!

Na Sahara fit rush post this kind thing first 😂

They should be taking them out one by one . Let the charity of orderliness begin from home.

Tinubu has bought a faction of Ogun state LP. Thiefnubu, we r ahead of u. Campaign is by OBIDIENTS. U are still playing the old tricks 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wait... Them day pay for mobilization of members too? As them no day kuku give shi shi.. Make him keep am for him pocket, the love is organic

Una just want put sand for garri

But they don’t expel criminal in other 2 parties

This is no news , it’s a factional problem and not National . So , we know the truth .

We don’t keep people with criminal records in Labour Party. Finally, we have a Party we can be proud of. Thanks to Men of integrity. Peter Obi and Yusuf Datti

We the OBIdient movement have expelled the Ogun state factional Labour Party. It is not over until the fat lady sings.

APC infiltrated Labour!

Mushroom party

Awon real jegudujera parading another man as Messiah 🤣🤣🤣 Oje laye

LP is a zero tolerance party. It is no hiding place for swindlers. It has shown a good example of what to expect.

The spirit of Emilo ko has now entered Mr. Okupe to behave the he did. He also has brought corruption to Labour Party. We pray he will not succeed in his evil agenda to cause confusion in Labour party. Labour Party management must urgently retrieve the 50M Naira from him.

Shows labour is clean as Obi labor all the way

Tinubu working so hard to distabilize Peter Obi in SW, next on the line is Lagos LP, unfortunately Peter Obi inherited a weak & unserious party structure that's prone to inducement ... ...however 98% of obidients are either partyless or cut across partylines, that's the beauty.

Fake News

Why are you hiding it in the name of constitution? Say it boldly. DEM CHOP MONEY. They were there to make money form the beginning.

Which of the labour party, why are you reporting nonsense

Na this one catch me pass, I thought labour party no dey mobilize. They even bring people from other states to Ibadan rally and yet the rally is still a flop. We no dey give shishi indeed

Please let not debate this, expelled is expelled,let him go. We néed to distance ourselves from anything that will mess up our movement,the LP youth leader is sent away too so he won’t be the first let him be replaced with a more articulate person we need to to double press NECKS

Very good, please nobody should sympathize with him, charity begins at home. We don’t want nonsense. Reorganization should commence from within

How can a sane person compare a hardened drûg Cri-m-in-al, a convîcted drûg âddîct and a Ter-ror-ists patron to Doyin okukpe?

Why do I feel Doyin Okupe doesn’t belong to Labour Party,I see him more as a PDP member.

It's always about money, once they can't control the bank account, that is when they have problem with everyone.

This politicians re the same at every party

Lobatan.

Party wey mean biz if you loose guard Dem drop you. Loose Guard is certain so becareful because this new Nigeria no go loose guard becos you go loose your job.

Labour Party has expelled the DG of it's Presidential Campaign Council, Doyin Okupe, over alleged high-handedness and financial recklessness. He is also facing prosecution by EFCC for allegedly receiving N702m illegally from public funds meant to procure arms to fight insurgency

There's nothing going on here, 1, never paid membership dues. 2, did not allow them do the business as usual Finish.

What is Okupe doing in labour party? I thought he's an APC man?

Ogun state chapter sponsored by Tinubu did the expelling.

Sahara reporter and fake news. Ogun LP officials that have been bought over by Tinubu?

Nothing is wrong in firing erring officials… that’s what Nigeria needs. Not pamper people who have been stealing since 1960.

U pple use your senses and read the content Abeg . What the LP chairman in ogun state and his secretary among others says here lacks merit & No reasonable points here. I guessed he has been paid . We don’t even recognize him he the chairman we stand gidigba with LP nd Obi

MrOdanz oyebosunday 😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂

Gbam, e ti nte bo

The voice of Jacob but hands of Esau. These are Tinubu paid agents. They won’t go anywhere. Tinubu is running helter skelter. He went as far as paying Soludo. He has tried everything to pull down PeterObi . No sane Nigerian will vote TinubuShettima2023

sammyalfred7 Doyin okupe of PDP. One of the biggest thieves ever liveth. We don tell una say LP Na PDP division 2

They lost direction and gradually collapsing,just wait.

Even if we leave Ogun State for them Tinubu will not still win let them continue fooling themselves

I STAND WITH DOYIN OKUPE. LP can come and collect his dues from me. I think the entire state level party must be investigated for infilteration of opposition parties. What power does the State chapter hase to expel a National DG? Its obiouse the state has cooked their books.

Can't Obi chose who should be DG of his campaign, even if he's not a member of the party? It's obvious there are external forces at play (obviously financially induced), so I think Obi can call off their bluff. Okupe is not contesting for any political office.

More to come from PDAPC. We are chilling and mobilizing. PETER IS BETTER

Awipeople

Doyin just disgraced himself as usual 🙄 Sad.

Fake News

Hand of Esau, Voice of Jacob D.O.A.

Setting example

This is just a distraction and not necessary at this critical point in time.

I thought Labour Party's chairmen and candidates are saints ?

When a certain politician was alleged to have said he was ready to “fight dirty”, the sponsored Ogun State LP crisis could be an example but we, the Obidients remain resolute rather than being distracted.

Fake news media lazy Sahara media can never investigate any news.just hoping to use allegedly rubbish.

LP must also eject PO, No manifesto. No asset declaration. No tax declaration. He is a corrupt candidate he will only do what he's mentors have done to this country.

No be this same Doyin Dey roll for floor at Dunamis the other day? 😂

Suddenly for the first time I have to check 10 comments before I see one Obidient's comment. Why hiding na 😂😂😂😂

Corruption meets corrupted😂😂

This is just a distraction, Peter Obi is still the main man

😂😂😂😂 it don dey scatter

Callixto002 goldxtane what's happening here

No state chapter LP has any right to expel a member of PPC.. Let them forward their greviancies to the National HQ s unless they are being sponsored.The party should not be distracted for any reason.

Is it the Ogun that is currently in Dapo Abiodun’s pocket for Tinubu or what?

Wahala never start

Try to read the full news and don’t just conclude with this misleading headline put out here

Lies!!! Doyin Okupe is as I said rumenral to Labour Party growth as even the main man Peter Obi. I don't need anybody to let me know this is media propaganda. Stop it.

SadiqAkanmu Egungu don enter Expressway 😛

Little by little cracks appear till it all falls to pieces Obidients ObiDatti2023 But thanks for bringing about a great awakening across Nigeria.

This caption is wrong

NNPP is the only party without rancor

Lmao, they said 'violating constitution'. Majority on this tweet didn't even bother to click the link & actually read. Many don turn police, detective, investigator, judge & jury😂😂. Una well done o

Expelling a Campaign Director General few months before the general election is very detrimental to the party. Peter Obi's chances are going low as the day goes by.

Jack_ng01 doyinokupe OselokaHObaze FS_Yusuf_ How true is this information

Na dem dem!

So Ogun people were mobilized to Ibadan for the LP rally? It means other SW states contributed crowd to that Ibadan rally. Worthy of note, uncle D embezzled money meant for mobilizing Ogun people to Ibadan. Where did he get the shishi he misappropriated in the first place.

I am indeed much happier that they couldn't find anything on Earth to hold their fingers & breathe to actually lay claims on such expulsion, only mere dues payment. They've inadvertently exposed who they're working for(APC+ PDP) their actions was expected; buh they'll fail again

As a member of LP in ogun, i have dis to say: What are their achievements so far? Who & who is running LP acc in Ogun? How much have they collected from the aspirants without submitting their names to inec? Arabambi has sold LP in ogun. For reallity kindly visit ogun

Ogun state lp moles from BAT! Okupe goes no where! Obidients don't have time for that

Na waoh.

I'm even surprised he survived this long.

Lai Mohammed speaks on Tinubu blasting Atiku and Peter Obi... What a reply, Lai Mohammed never disappoints. 😂

Jungle don dey mature 😂

THIS IS EXPECTED. THE WINNING PAIN IS ON THEIR NECK. THE POLLS ARE COMING AND VALIDATING IT. OBIDATTI straight to Aso rock

Hatchet job! Obidients on the move. OBIDATTI IS COCKSURE!

A good judge listens to both parties and evaluates their stories before conclusions. Most Nigerians are very bad at doing that. Hope this is not an outside sponsored infiltration to sidetrack and distract the ever prolific and forward looking Labor Party. Time shall reveal it.

🤣🤣🤣

ObiDatti2023 TakeBackNaija Focus is key to impact! Okupe is not on the ballot. They can expel him 100x if they like , it doesn’t make any difference. Okupe will still vote, he is still Labour Party Campaign Director General.

Season of politicking, politics is deep, forget noise, same thing is cooking.

How did Doyin Okupe went from a disposable VP candidate to a disposable PCDG and now to a disposable Labor Party member...

So...him na mole? God will save this country.

FAKE NEWS

Me to Doyin Okupe 👇👇👇👇

Obidiots over to you. Please tell us this is fake news.

“He said Okupe, having failed in the payment of his membership dues for the last six months of joining the party, has forfeited his membership of the party and is no longer fit and competent to continue to act as the DG of the Presidential Campaign Council.” Lol 😂😂😂😂

Expel over dues? All the excos in LP Ogun ti ya werey

Did Sahara reporters get the info from LP?

They are sponsored to cause mayhem in that particular state. That's my opinion.

jimidisu good evening sir 😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅

Child's play 😂 for failure to pay party membership dues 😂 😂

Fake news. Ogun Abagdo boys have failed and now looking stupid

Hahahahahahaha

Is it DG a party office?😂😂 Sahara I thought you people are credible before What are you saying na council na

PDAPC

Fifth Columnists have hijacked the Labour Party. Why expel Okupe at this time? I pray it is not true.

Ogun state is politically cursed when it comes to things this. There is always a Judas after Judas, d late Buruji Kashamu took money to destabilize PDP for APC to retain power, dats y PDP is yet to get his balance till date. Jimi Lawal took over from Kashamu now LP has started.

I STAND TO DISAGREE WITH WHOM SO EVER IS BEHIND THIS ART. IT IS NOT GOOD FOR THE PARTY.

How true is this?

Expel because he did not pay his dues, lol Now read the below till the end you will understand who is pulling the string to disorganize the LP. 👇

See how you all swallowed this half cooked lie hook line and sinker

4rm June we hv always known dt d secretary of LP has been a saboteur, I am not surprised one bit with this development. He was the same person that published 1 nonsense like back then using the original LP handle. He is doing the work he was sent to, but God is bigger than them

They want to win Election.

The APC moles in LP are at work. Obi should just step down for ATIKU and let that Labour thing die off.

I learn it's a case of fraud and if that's the case, it should meet the maximum punishment. Devil can't cast out devils. We need our foundation to be on transparency and integrity.

Na wah oooooo.

They will hunt themselves one by one. All the nuisance, noise & insults will nw shift to their DG. Next will be their VP 👇, and then the presidential candidate. They are all former PDP members, d locust party that ate up our field. They're not who they are claiming to be. Liars

Discipline begins from Home - PeterObi et Ahmed Datti expels the Executive Campaign Director of the Labour Party Okupe and others for violating the party's Constitution. Tough Law and Tough Sanction for Discipline

Toh!! I hope Okupe isn't sidelined in this struggle, he don try for Obi ooo💁‍♂️💁‍♂️💁‍♂️

Fake news

Ogun LP, Ode Newspaper, YeleSowore call Your guys to Order

You people still don't it , Peter Obi is the goal, if you like suspend the DG, suspend the spokes person , suspend the entire party , suspend the whole Nigeria , suspend this life if you want , I will still vote for Peter Obi

Fake news

Fake news

B.S

😂🤣😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣 una no dey tire? They can only try but they will fail! Without Obi what is labour? Abeg make una shift..... Obi2023 is sure bet

I was wondering from day one why Obi chose a character like Okupe as his presidential campaign director. This guy has a very nasty records during the PDP days

Commendable... I think Inappropriate conducts should not be allowed from anybody, no matter who you are.. this are the kind of discipline we want to see moving forward. No body is bigger than everybody..

There must be rule or law to get a society of sane people, no one is above the law even the president.

What's happening?😂

After they have expelled him now which political party will he moved to now.there is God O.

This is a taste of how ObiDatti govt will be,,decisive and responsive if you mess up you go collect no matter who you are
