Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, an ex-Niger Delta militant commander, has warned that anybody who seeks to remove Governor Siminalayi Fubara’s mandate would be dealt with.
During a recent Facebook Live, Dokubo gave the warning, stating that although he opposed Fubara and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) during the 2023 general elections, he would not back the acts of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, against the Rivers governor.
The Ijaw nationalist warned that anybody attempting to depose Governor Fubara “would go down.”
The 59-year-old further claimed that Fubara conspired with Wike to assassinate him during the election.
He said, “I was not a supporter of Sim. Sim was even my enemy. He conspired with Wike to see that I am killed. I’m not dead, I’m still walking. But I told my friend, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu the truth. I said you want to make Ijaws enemy because of Wike, okay; my hand no dey o.’
“I am an Ijaw man. There are two things that I cannot compromise on the surface of this earth – my Ijaw heritage and my Islam. Anybody who wants to take that mandate from Sim would go down because I know my Ijaw people. You know our capacity very well. It is no mouth.”
