The Labour Party has appointed Akin Osuntokun as the new Director General of the Labour Party’s Presidential Campaign Council.
Osuntokun replaces Doyin Okupe who resigned after he was convicted by a Federal High Court in a money laudering case.
The party’s national chairman, Julius Abure, announced this in Abuja on Tuesday after a strategic meeting which had members of the National Working Committee and several political candidates of the Labour Party in attendance.
Abure said the decision was reached after wide consultations with party stakeholders across board.
Until recently, Osuntokun was the Zonal Coordinator (South) of the campaign council. A former Managing Director of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), Osuntokun served as Political Adviser to former President Olusegun Obasanjo, and as Director of the Presidential campaign of the People’s Democratic Party in 2011.
