Leader of Niger-Delta
Peoples Volunteers Force (NDPVF), Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari has lashed
out at President Goodluck Jonathan for allegedly placing more value
on the life of former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari
(rtd) than other Nigerians.
President Jonathan
had said Nigeria would have boiled had Gen. Buhari died in a recent bomb attack
in Kaduna. Saying that such comment was uncalled for, the ex-militant leader
also rejected insinuations that he paid the mastermind of the blast N5m.
Dokubo, who denied
working for President Jonathan also said that the insinuation was
meant to tarnish his image as a way of shutting him out of 2015 electioneering
process.
Speaking in Abuja on
Tuesday, he insisted his stance that General Buhari has no good
intentions for Nigeria as a result of the support he (Buhari) gets from
foreign leaders and organizations aiming to destabilize the country.
He said: “I do not
work for Jonathan. What the President said was wrong. The life of Buhari
is not more important than 87 people that died in that blast. It is
unfortunate that the president made such a statement. I wonder why the
President will be promoting one person above that of other Nigerians.
“That statement from
the President was very unfortunate. I do have the capacity to tell the
President to apologize, but I still insist that he should not have made
such a statement.
“Soon after the
blast, a cross-gender person came out and was arrested. Even the mother of
the person arrested said he was insane”.
On working for
President Jonathan, Dokubo said, “Social media reports said I gave them N5
million to carry out the attack. These things are masterminded. The first
one is against President Jonathan and the other is against me.
“I did not pay
anybody to carry out any assassination attempt on Buhari. I do not have
anything against him. He is not a threat. He will fail in 2015. For the
records, I do not operate a Twitter account and anyone saying I
tweeted that there will be more attacks is only using my name.”
“They want to silence
me because they know the role I will play in 2015. They have also
sponsored reports in Benin Republic that I am the person financing Boko
Haram.
“Another islamic
scholar also said I am the one sponsoring Boko Haram to destroy the north
on behalf of President Jonathan.
“The Deputy Minority
Leader in the House of Representatives said I spoke on behalf of President
Jonathan. That means Buhari is the commander-in-chief of Boko Haram in the
north. His allies came out and made inflammatory statements
during the 2011 elections.”
Dokubo said he can
prove how Gen Buhari was being funded by the late Leader of Libya,
Col. Muammar Gaddafi
