Akin Osuntokun has been announced as the new Labour Party’s Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) Director-General (DG).
The announcement follows the resignation of Doyin Okupe who held the post but relinquished it upon his conviction for money laundering.
Osuntokun succeeds Doyin Okupe who resigned of late as the director-general of the campaign council for the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
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.
