Okupe served as a senior adviser to former President Goodluck Jonathan and later as the Director-General of Peter Obi’s 2023 presidential campaign.
In December 2022, he withdrew from Obi’s campaign after a money laundering conviction.
He later resigned from the Labour Party after the 2023 general elections.
