The amount of noise from Asari Dokubo’s quarters has continually
been a cause for worry to decent people; sadly his kinsmen see nothing wrong in
his inflammatory utterances. Asari Dokubo’s cause is not in the interest of
Nigerians or his people. His utterances are expressions of his selfish interest
in propagating the ambition of the incumbent.
This is not about us at all and people must understand his
position as that of a man running on his own. The good people of the Niger
Delta will do well to dissociate themselves from this campaign of violence and
further needless bloodletting. All battles eventually end in dialogue and not
in perpetual threats of war. It is utterly selfish for this man to continue to
have a retinue of Nigerians running around the wheel of violence with him. If
truly he has the interest of Nigerians at heart, he would not be beating drums
of war where trained warriors are clamoring for calm and peace.
Asari Dokubo’s campaign will not in any way benefit the good
people of the Niger Delta. His physical appearance alone goes a long way to
confirm this line of thought. If the incumbent does not see that Asari Dokubo
is embarrassing him, then the good people of the Niger Delta who know better
should dissociate themselves from his cause at the earliest.
The proper thing to do is to call him to order but where that
fails; he should be made to face the wrath of the laws of the land. Alas! His
kinsman does not see the need to because he would want to give the lame excuse
that Asari Dokubo is an adult Nigerian who is entitled to his own opinions and
free to do as he pleases. There are laws in the land and this man is violating
them under the watch of his kinsman.
I reiterate this is not about us; it is not in our interest
for this man to continue to incite the polity.
GOD bless Nigeria.
