There are many reasons why Doyin Okupe is not happy these days. Former World Bank Vice President, Oby Ezekwesili not greeting him is one of them.
The Senior Special Assistant to President Jonathan on Public Affairs apparently met Ezekwesili at London’s Heathrow airport and extended a sign of goodwill toward her in greeting, but she refused to greet him. Okupe described her reaction as ‘childish’ and ‘unbefitting of a Christian’.
Jst met oby @heathrow.went over 2say hello. Shockingly she refused 2 say hello or shake me.! We may disagree but it ought not b personal.

There are been some reaction on Twitter to Okupe’s tweets.

@doyinokupe She needs to know you are not the enemy. Boko Haram is the enemy of the state.
