Doyin Okupe lambastes Wike over attacks on PDP chairman Secondus
Meanwhile, Legit.ng had previously reported that Doyin Okupe, a former senior special assistant to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan on public affairs, lambasted Governor Wike over his comments on the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus.
It was reported that Okupe in a statement posted on his Facebook page on Monday, July 12, said that an attack on Secondus by Wike is an attack on the PDP as a whole.
He said it is ridiculous that Wike had to openly castigate Secondus at a public function, adding that the governor only exhibited indecent and irresponsible acts not an act of bravery.
