Asari-dokubo Gives Fg One Week Ultimatum To Hands-off Bayelsa Election by Shegman22(m): 9:54pm On Dec 10, 2015
A fresh wave of agitation loomed yesterday with the former leader of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force, Alhaji Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, giving the Federal Government a week ultimatum to hands off in an alleged plan to rig the governorship election in Bayelsa State andinstall the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Timipre Sylva, as winnerof the election.
In a statement made available to the Press in Yenagoa, the state capital,Dokubo-
Asari accused the Federal Government and its agencies of collaborating with the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC) to rig the election,warning that except government stays clear of the alleged complicity, the ex-militants would return to the creeks to resume agitation with consequenceson strategic oil installations.
If bynext week the Federal Government does not hands off from the Bayelsa polls by allowing the people to freely choose their leader but still interfering throughthe observed various guises and deception, then we would have no option than to return to the creeks to press for our rights as patriotic citizens being undulyoppressed and dehumanized all in the name of politics”, he stated.
He stated: “We have said it before that President Buhari is executing an anti-Ijawagenda and his aim is to steal our God-given resources to rebuild the northdestroyed by Boko Haram. That is why he is hell-bent on manipulating theelectoral process in Bayelsa State and hand it over to the APC.
They are exploiting Sylva’s greed and desperation for power and therefore using him tocarry out their evil agenda. But we want them to know that this country will goup in flames if they try it. Boko Haram will be a child’s play if PresidentBuhari and his APC think they can upturn the people’s mandate. It would be agrave injustice which can never stand. We are Ijaw people and we have neverbeen conquered”.
He noted that going by the results already declared by INEC, PDP’s candidate, SeriakeDickson, had won 6 of the 7 local governments declared with a margin of 33,154votes and has thus fulfilled constitutional requirement of 2/3 spread andpopular votes but without Southern Ijaw as the only local government remaining.
He has therefore called on the Federal Government to ensure the election is rescheduled andconducted in a transparent process as they will be watching to see if the government still interferes in theprocess till next week and would then launch “a full scale agitation to saveour people from modern day slavery of intimidation, oppression and dictators.

Buhari dare not stir the hornet's nest. Asari isn't the one that's even daring, it's the majority of the Bayelsans

As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, I don't have specific information about the event you mentioned involving Asari Dokubo giving the Federal Government a one-week ultimatum regarding the Bayelsa election. However, I can provide some general context based on my earlier training data.

Asari Dokubo is a Nigerian activist and former militant leader in the Niger Delta region. He has been known for his involvement in various socio-political issues in Nigeria, particularly those related to the Niger Delta and its people.

An ultimatum is a final demand or statement of [url=https://freebetstake.com/[/url] given to someone, typically in the context of a dispute or conflict. Without specific details, it's challenging to provide a precise explanation of the situation you're referring to. However, it suggests that Asari Dokubo may have issued a deadline or ultimatum to the Federal Government, urging them to take a particular action or to stay away from intervening in the Bayelsa election within a specified timeframe.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information on this specific incident, I recommend checking reliable news sources or official statements from the parties involved. News reports or official statements can provide the context, www.toolcent.com, and developments surrounding Asari Dokubo's ultimatum and its relation to the Bayelsa election.
