Despite the opposition to the
2015 re-election bid of President
Goodluck Jonathan, Leader of the
Niger Delta People’s Volunteer
Force (NDPVF), Alhaji Mujahid
Dokubo-Asari, has said there is
nothing to worry about, that the
President has already won.
Dokubo-Asari’s statement is
coming at a time opposition to
the 2015 presidential ambition
of Jonathan by the Alhaji Kawu
Baraje-led faction of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), is on the
prowl.
He wondered why Jonathan
would be talking and discussing
with Governor Sule Lamido’s
group whom he called political
miscreants, people who do not
have political value.
Dokubo-Asari said Lamido and
his group were irrelevant to the
realization of the president’s
ambition, querying: “If Lamido
could not deliver Jigawa State to
Jonathan in 2011, of what
relevance is he in realizing it in
2015?”
Reacting to Lamido’s interview in
last week’s Sunday Sun in which
the governor said, “Dokubo-Asari
is a small boy, his entire clan, I
don’t think they are up to one
million people. If his entire clan
are not up to one million people,
you just ignore him,” Dokubo-
Asari lampooned Lamido, saying
that people like him should not
even be listened to at all.
“Jonathan has already won.
Whether they vote or they don’t
vote, that is their business. He
will win and if they like, they
should go and hang themselves.
For people like Sule Lamido to
even be listened to, is very
regrettable. This is a man who is
living according to his
antecedents; a man who rebelled
against the greatest Northern
political ideologue, Mallam Aminu
Kano. These people have never
been on the side of their people.
“I would forgive him because
Ijaw people are not protesting
about scientific census. It is
people like Sule Lamido that are
protesting that the chairman of
the National Population
Commission should be sacked. It
clearly shows that they have
something to hide.
“There is no where in the world
where the arid part of the
country is more populated. All
over the world, population is at
the coast. Population centers are
at the coast, where there are
economic activities. We live in a
scientific world. So, when the
time comes, he will know. We
don’t even need to be 200
people to teach him a lesson and
put sand in his mouth.

hmmmm, we are watching. 2015 is just a year and some months now.
