EKO HOT BLOG reports that operatives of the Department of State Service (DSS) have arrested the former Director-General of Peter Obi’s Labour Party (LP) campaign, Doyin Okupe.
Doyin was reportedly arrested at the Muritala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, on Thursday, January 12, 2023, while on his way to London.
A statement by Okupe’s Lawyer, Tolu Babaleye said, “The information reaching me now is that Dr. Doyin Okupe has been arrested at Lagos Airport by the DSS on his way to London.
“The reason, according to the source, is that he was asked to produce evidence that the Federal High Court Abuja has freed him from the case in which he was convicted and paid a fine to the knowledge of the whole world and was allowed to go home.
“When will this harassment stop? Who is after Dr. Doyin Okupe? As of today, the man has no case to answer anywhere, I hereby demand that the DSS should release my Client immediately as it is a violation of his freedom of movement, right to liberty, and dignity as a human person.
“This is unfair as the man’s health is fast failing!”
