DR. DOYIN OKUPE IS DEAD

Dr. Doyin Okupe, a prominent Nigerian physician, politician, and former presidential aide, has died.

He passed away at the age of 72.

According to sources close to the family, Dr. Okupe had been critically ill in the weeks leading up to his demise.

His health had reportedly deteriorated significantly, prompting concern among his loved ones and supporters.

Sahara Reporters confirmed that his death was linked to cancer, marking the end of a long struggle with the illness.

Sahara Reporters had in October 2023 reported that Okupe was hospitalized with prostate cancer and was flown to Israel for treatment.

However, it was learnt that his condition did not improve as he and his family expected.

Okupe was first diagnosed with prostate cancer 16 years ago and later developed sarcoma in his right shoulder.

    WHY GOV FUBARA INVITED RIVERS ASSEMBLY MEMBERS

    WHY GOV FUBARA INVITED ASSEMBLY MEMBERS Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara took a significant step by inviting the Amaewhule-led members of the State House of Assembly for a crucial meeting. The invitation was issued following the Governor’s receipt of the Supreme Court’s certified true copy of a judgment, which directly impacted the political atmosphere in the state. The letter detailing this invitation was sent by Dr. Tammy Danagogo, the Secretary to the State Government, to Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule, the Speaker of the House. The primary reasons for this meeting were multifaceted. First, it sought to provide a conducive environment for the lawmakers loyal to Nyesom Wike, the Federal Capital Territory Minister, to hold their sittings. This move aimed at resolving ongoing issues within the Assembly, ensuring smooth operations, and promoting effective governance. Additionally, one of the focal points of the meeting was to address the presentation of the 2025 budget, an important task for the state’s financial planning. Another critical reason for the invitation was to discuss the payment of outstanding allowances and remuneration for the Assembly members. This matter had been a source of tension and required urgent attention to maintain the legislators’ cooperation and morale. The meeting, scheduled for March 10, 2025, at 10 am at the Government House in Port Harcourt, was seen as an opportunity for all parties to come together, set aside differences, and chart a course for a peaceful and productive future for Rivers State. The Governor emphasized that the ultimate goal was to prioritize the best interests of the state and its citizens.
