North Panics Over The Unholy Alliance Of Al- Mustapha,Dokubo-Asari,Abacha by chibecanglobal(m): 8:43am On Nov 17, 2014 |
The uncommon alliance and regular meeting taking place between Mujaheed Dokubo-Asari ,Leader of the Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force, Major Hamza al-Mustapha, the former Chief Security Officer to the former Head of State, General Abacha Sanni, and Alhaji Muhammed Abacha, the son of the former military ruler is currently unsettling political circles in the North. According to the NIGERIAN TRIBUNE, political watchers and chieftains in the region view the recent defection of Alhaji Muhammed Abacha, the son of the former military ruler, to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a move by the Jonathan camp to tackle some powerful politicians who are believed to control political power in Kano, especially the state governor, Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso. Another reason the north is wary of the alliance is Dokubo-Asari who has never hidden his disdain for any political arrangement that would return presidential power to the North in 2015, and al-Mustapha’s association with the ex-militant is seen by politicians in the region as a ploy to scuttle the North’s chance of wresting power from President Goodluck Jonathan in the next general election. Al-Mustapha is seen as a potent factor to checkmate most of the politicians in the North as well as a better tool to sell Jonathan’s candidature to the region, he is also being seen as a bridge builder to the people in South through his association with Dokubo-Asari. Last Friday, a coalition of northern youths under the aegis of the Northern Youth Revival Movement (NYRM) , threatened to disown al-Mustapha over the purported romance with Dokubo-Asari, saying it is capable of denying the North the chance to produce the president come 2015. "We hereby condemn the so-called Al-Mustapha – Dokubo Kaduna conference under the auspices of the National United Alliance, and call on the northern youth to dissociate themselves from any act that is unprogressive to the region". “We are using this medium to call on our northern youths to be patriotic to the region in order not to be manipulated ahead of the 2015 general election by Goodluck Jonathan using Major Al-Mustapha.” “As we will move to disown Major al-Mustapha, we also advise him to (face) his court litigation and be more prayerful this time, as he may not enjoy the prayer of the Northern people, now that they have known his true color", they added. Saturday Tribune reported that most politicians loyal to Jonathan are confused over the ongoing political crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and believe that both al- Mustapha and Abacha can use their present influence to tilt the scale in the president’s favor in the race to the presidency in 2015. www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/north-panics-over-the-unholy-alliance-of-al-mustapha-dokubo-asari-abacha.8318/ |
