Asari Dokubo Says Obasanjo And Davies Connived To Embarrass Jonathan by Crocz(m): 6:30pm On Sep 16, 2014
The active vocal leader of Niger Delta militants who seems to always have explanation for everything says Davies, who went public with his alleged findings about the sponsors of boko haram, and ex-president Obasanjo connived to embarrass GEJ.
He said: “I know Stephen Davies. I meet him in 2004 when
he came to my camp with Van Kemedy and told us that he
had the mandate of the European Union, the British
Government, the Church of England and Gen. Olusegun
Obasanjo to negotiate with us to come out of our camps and
meet with the government.
“I was sceptical but after all there ought to be peace. So, I
gave it a chance until Timi Alaibe and others also came. We
negotiated and we came out. I was brought to Abuja with
some of our men and we met with Obasanjo. Thereafter, we
had a very robust relationship: His daughters, other family
members, friends. He was very good to me but he was
Obasanjo’s friend.
“Lately when I started reading about a Federal government
negotiator and Steve Davies name popped up, I was
wandering. Steve Davies, a christain with Boko Haram? How
possible? Until he came out with his report and I found out
that the report made nonsense of all the respect and high
regards I have for him. This is the man who says that
opposition was sponsoring Boko Haram. That was the main
theme of the report; that President Goodluck Jonathan was not
acting to bring these opposition elements who are sponsoring
Boko Haram.
“But all of a sudden, he made a complete somersault. He
never named any member of the opposition. The first person
he called was Gen. Ihejirika. This is laughable. It is common
sensical to ask: was he “high” or something when he said
because any right thinking person, if it is not that so many of
these people are made and sick in Nigeria who parade
themselves as intellectuals with all prefixes and suffixes
behind their names, it is so appalling. When did Ihejirika start
sponsoring Boko Haram? Was it in 2002 when the group
made an Ijira to Yobe, when they had confrontation with
members of the Nigerian Police or was it in 2009 when the
leader of the group, Mohammed Yusuf was extra-judicially
murdered on the orders of President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua,
which they said Ali Modu Sheriff was misdirected the
government for him to be killed?
“What if Stephen Davies had named the President as a
sponsor, what would have happened? So, innocent people
should just be sacrificed? No. It is not right. The President
should be able to discern when this is political.
“Steven Davies is Obasajo’s friend. Obasanjo’s agenda is to
kick out Jonathan from Aso Rock. Obasanjo masterminded it.
I am 100% sure. Steven Davies is Obasanjo’s friend.
Obasanjo brought him to Nigeria. Obasanjo would have told
him there is somebody in Central Bank who is sponsoring
Boko Haram. Steven Davies did not name that but it was easy
to name Ihejirika and Sheriff.
When did Ihejirika start sponsoring Boko Haram? Was it at
time that Ihejirika who was nobody, who was in the
Engineering Corps of the Nigerian Army was sponsoring
Boko Haram? For what purpose? Who gave him the money to
sponsor Boko Haram? Or was it when he became Chief of
Army Staff when some northern elites have been campaigning
going to ICC, calling for trial of this man for committing
genocide? And Shehu Sani and El-rufia who have been at the
top? When did Ihejirika transmute? It is terrible.
“I am so disappointed. I will not deny that I know him, he
was good to me. But I think this is the worst period of his life.
Whatever had happened for him to compromise his position
so brazenly, it will end his career in big disgrace.
“Why was it easy to name Sheriff and Ihejirika but was
difficult to name the man at CBN? Steve Davies should be
ashamed of himself that he would be so cheaply used by
Obasanjo and thinks that he can score a point. I am so
ashamed of him. Their agenda is to continue to embarrass
Jonathan with their friends in the international scene.”

And on Alimodu Sheriff, national scene.”
Also, reacting on the involvement of former Governor of Borno State, the Niger-Delta Activist said
that as a muslim, it was possible that Sheriff may have had an encounter with some members of the group in the beginning and later opted out when it became obvious that their activities were weird.





Obasanjo be like "let's hear what this r*gue have to say"
