Dr Doyin Okupe, the former spokesperson, has refuted the claim making rounds that he criticised President Bola Tinubu in his political career.
Okupe made this known in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Lagos
According to Okupe, there is no record anywhere in his political career where he ever criticised Tinubu.
“Go and check all through my time in the Labour Party and in PDP. I have never in my life criticised Bola Tinubu even though we have never been under the same political umbrella before.
“A good man does not spoil another good person. We had a very serious, not-so-visible bond during the NADECO (National Democratic Coalition).
“He was abroad. We were here in Nigeria coordinating.
“When we were in the trenches together under severe pressure from government, running from here to here, it gives a bond that even political partisanship cannot give.
“So, you can go and check all publications. I have never, ever criticised him. There is nowhere you will hear me speak anything ill about Bola Tinubu,” he said.
