I’ll Allow The Law Take Its Due Course With Doyin Okupe – Peter Obi

The Labour Party Presidential candidate, Peter Obi has come out to say that the conviction of his Campaign Organisation’s Director-General, Dr. Doyin Okupe over alleged money laundering would not break his resolve to be Nigeria’s President.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he is absolutely undaunted by the conviction and would continue with his campaign while allowing the due process of law to take its course.

He added that he is still studying what is coming out of the court to keep himself abreast of the situation.

His words, “I am hearing about it (the conviction) just like you. I am still studying what is coming out of the court and everything. I believe in the rule of law. It is not going to demoralise me.”

“Today, when I arrived Akwa Ibom somebody asked me why I haven’t been using my aircraft because it has been grounded and all that, and I said to him that nothing demoralises me.”

“In my life, I have never stayed where they dropped me, otherwise, I would have been where they dropped me before. This election, if they like, let them do anything about people who are around me. I will get there.”

“The structure they have today is the structure we want to destroy. It is the structure of criminality. It is the structure that produced 133 million people living in poverty.”

“It is the structure that produced 20 million out-of-school children. It is the structure that has made Nigeria surpass India in infant mortality. It is the structure that will destroy Nigeria and we want to destroy that structure.”
