Oseloka Obaze, campaign manager of the Obi-Datti Organisation in 2023, has countered Doyin Okupe’s recent remarks dismissing Peter Obi’s “consumption to production” mantra as lacking a policy foundation.
In a post on X, Obaze criticized Okupe’s claims, calling them “balderdash,” and provided evidence to refute the statement.
Obaze expressed disappointment in Okupe, who had served as the Director-General of Obi’s campaign during the 2023 presidential election.
He noted that Okupe had played a direct role in finalizing the policy document that detailed Obi’s economic vision, which centres on transforming Nigeria’s economy from a consumption-driven model to a production-based one.
He added: “Perhaps, he [Okupe] has a touch of amnesia. Well, he should know. He is the Medical Doctor!”
Okupe’s earlier comments, in which he labelled Obi’s campaign rhetoric as lacking depth and actionable plans, have sparked controversy and backlash from Obi’s supporters.
