Former Labour Party leader, Doyin Okupe, has reacted after being alleged to have misappropriated military funds for personal gain.
A user on X responded with a critical comment after Doyin Okupe shared a worship music video on his verified X account.
Here is what the X user wrote on his X account (formerly known as Twitter);
“You diverted arms funds to your account.”.
Reacting to the comment, Doyin Okupe has dismissed allegations of embezzling public funds, including military allocations, as utterly false and malicious. Okupe asserts that these claims stem from a vendetta-driven agenda devoid of factual basis.
He emphasized that no Nigerian institution or legal authority has implicated him in such wrongdoing. Okupe’s stance underscores the need for responsible reporting and fact-based discourse, particularly when making serious accusations against individuals.
Here is what Doyin Okupe wrote on his official X account:
“This is a malicious publication lacking any iota of truth. It is from your incensed hateful mind. No organisation in Nigeria has accused me of diverting public funds, not to talk of funds meant for the military. No court of law ln Nigeria has found me guilty of such an offense”.
