Narrating his encounter with the former president on his Facebook page, Friday, Dr. Okupe said he ( Obasanjo),” descended on me heavily and vented his anger copiously. I prostrated and held his feet as a well trained Yoruba man and pleaded earnestly for his forgiveness.”
Okupe wrote: ” Last Sunday , in the company of some friends I met with Baba Obasanjo principally to try and settle and resolve the misunderstanding that has existed between Baba and I since I joined the Jonathan’s administration,” he wrote on his Facebook page on Friday, May 13.
“Vintage Baba, he descended on me heavily and vented his anger copiously. I prostrated and held his feet as a well trained Yoruba man and pleaded earnestly for his forgiveness, occasionally given short explanations for areas I considered my actions were misunderstood.
“Also typical of Baba, ever willing to forgive a repentant son, we embraced, I even kissed him as a loving son.“Politics sometimes is such a bad business, you hurt your friends and even benefactors, but its all that is well that ends well.”
Okupe is one of the Chieftains of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the South West, who vowed to pull out of the party if its Chairmanship position is not zoned to their regio

Wonders shall never end...Obasanjo won't beg Buhari when the need arises to put you in prison.
ReplyDeleteHe is so stupid..would he have gone to beg if PDP had won the election?
DeleteCyril help me ask ooooo...We really have stupid people in politics.
DeleteNo.
DeleteObasanjo loves to be regarded as a god, which he is not. Okupe is definitely a fool, a much bigger fool than Obasanjo.
DeleteYou got that wrong. In Yoruba land, we are trained to regard every one who is older than us as a little god; no matter what they do, you treat your elders with respect that's why i love Yoruba nation.
DeleteSome of you are not even ashamed to call a man as old your father a fool. No wonder the high level of suffering in this nation.
DeletePolitical play us like a film, Drama

ReplyDeleteEven if he defeated to APC he's sins wouldn't be forgiven
ReplyDeleteIt was so surprising that Doyin Okupe who ate under baba Obasanjo could turn himself to a slave under Jonathan and begin to abuse the mate of your grandfather .
ReplyDeleteNow he has swallowed his words,shameless politician.Baba Obasanjo,please be careful,I suspect he is planning to defect to APC and he needs appointment or EFCC is knocking his door,the best thing for him is to seek for cover,Doyin is never a consistent person..Be Careful!
