There's no evidence whatsoever that Asari Dokubo was on that plane, just some silly rantings of a desperate party[/color]

The All Progressives Congress has asked President Goodluck Jonathan to explain to Nigerians what Mujaheed Asari Dokubo, was doing on the plane that illegally ferried US$9.3m to South Africa, where Asari Dokubo, another Nigerian and an Israeli were arrested, according to a published
report.

In a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said since the federal government has taken ownership of the funds by saying the National Security Adviser issued the end-user certificate for the arms purchase, it stands to reason that the same government will know the involvement of all those aboard the plane. It said, therefore, that the federal government has a
lot of questions to answer on the whole deal,
including whether Asari Dokubo is the contractor or the end user, who he was procuring arms for and for what purpose.


APC said the questions become pertinent because even the NSA, who issued the end-user agreement for the purchase, does not and cannot purchase arms for any of the armed services. The Service Chiefs have separate budgets from the NSA for arms purchase.


It said, ”Under our Constitution, the NSA is an adviser and has no executive powers to deploy troops from any of the services or purchase arms for them. That the arms purported to be purchased from South Africa were ordered from the office of the NSA is nothing but a mere fabrication, and raises serious questions about the motive for the purchase.


”Nigerians will therefore like to know on whose behalf Asari Dokubo was purchasing arms. This is very crucial because Asari Dokubo has been threatening that Nigeria will not know peace if his benefactor, President Jonathan, is not re-elected. Therefore, Nigerians will like to know whether he has started stockpiling arms to make his threat a reality, since elections are due in a few months’ time.
”If these arms are meant to fight insurgency, as the government has claimed, what is Asari Dokubo’s business purchasing arms for the Nigerian military, if indeed they were for the military? Does it not occur to the Nigerian government that this man
who once took arms against the state may not
have jettisoned his sinister plan against the same
state? Which country will ever allow a man who once carried arms against the state to now be purchasing arms for the same state?

“Even if it is true that he is purchasing the arms for the state, what prevents him from also using the opportunity to purchase arms for his own sinister motive? Could this be why Asari Dokubo has been talking publicly and confidently, without official censure, that President Jonathan must be re-elected or Nigeria will not know peace again?” It added that its Press Release on Tuesday, had further asked President Jonathan to come clean on the US$9.3m and US$5.7m deals.
“We also asked him to tell Nigerians the identity of the two Nigerians who were on the plane that illegally ferried money to South Africa. Now that the Nigerians are known, and they are the President’s men, the story has taken a new dimension,” it said.

APC said since those who claim to be fighting for Nigeria’s unity may actually be the ones working against it, since those who lay claim to patriotism may actually be any but patriotic, it is more urgent now, than ever, for the National Assembly to take these cash-for-arms deals seriously, instead of dismissing the concerns of Nigerians on the basis of some rules as the House of Representatives has
glibly done.

The party commended the media for keeping the story alive and for working hard to unearth the identity of the Nigerians aboard the ill-fated plane that illegally flew money into another country in violation of that country’s laws and all known
tenets of decency.


It called on the media, in pursuance of its constitutional role of a watchdog, not to relent in
exposing the circumstances surrounding the cash-
for-arms deals, which have seriously embarrassed
Nigeria in the comity of nations and which have the
potential to threaten Nigeria’s unity, going by the latest revelations.

Have their current leader toppled and supplanted by an American puppet where Washington becomes the dictator. I'm no supporter of dictatorship but I think any action with the input of the Americans would only result in further distabilization of the country and the region at large, bringing with it the attendant caos, deaths, and general hardship.
