“You Are Coward If You Can’t Arrest Me”
Leader of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF), Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, took a swipe at those calling for his arrest, vowing to halt oil production in the country, if he is arrested.
Dokubo-Asari, who spoke at a press conference in Abuja, was adamant and insisted that he stands by his comment for which the security agencies are now being prevailed upon to arrest him.
He challenged the House of Representatives and some northern leaders to order his arrest, if they can.
“The last time former president Olusegun Obasanjo arrested me,”Dokubo-Asari stated, “my arrest reduced Nigeria’s oil production to 700,000 barrels per day, this time, it will reduce it to zero barrel, and we will match violence by violence, intrigues by intrigues, we are ready for them.”
He said if some of those calling for his arrest fail to carry out their threats, he will regard them as cowards.
The former President of Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) also vowed that Nigeria would become “history” if he is arrested.
He wondered why those now clamouring for his incarceration did not do the same when some northern leaders threatened to make the country ungovernable, “where the dog and baboon will soak in blood” and how there will be no more Nigeria, if a northern did not occupy Aso Rock Presidential Villa in 2015.
Dokubo-Asari said: “I stand by my statement which I made in my earlier press conference; there will be no peace, not only in the Niger Delta, but everywhere, if Goodluck Jonathan is not President by 2015.
“I want to add that the Fulanis, who migrated and invaded our lands and continue to show disregard and disrespect to the owners of the country they came into, and people have tolerated them for a very long time, but that will no longer continue.
“I want to refresh your memories with comments made by these Fulani invaders who have in the time past threatened war and break of Nigeria.
“In 2010, a Fulani, one Lawal Kaita said and I quote: ‘Anything short of a Northern President is tantamount to stealing our Presidency. Jonathan has to go and he will go. Even if he uses the incumbency power to get his nomination on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, he would be frustrated out…
The North is determined, if that happens, to make the country ungovernable for President Goodluck Jonathan or any other Southerner who finds his way to the seat of power on the platform of the PDP against the principle of the party’s zoning policy.”
