Former militant leader, Asari Dokubo, has taken his time to recount the real incidents that transpired during the 2023 presidential election.
Indeed, the hardship is telling on everyone, not even those who supported the Tinubu-led administration or those who went the extra mile are immune to the effects of the hardship.
As we speak, Asari Dokubo, a strong ally of Tinubu during the election has lamented the betrayal of the Ijaws and Niger Deltans by the Yorubas after supporting and voting massively for the administration of President Bola Tinubu.
Dokubo in a video making rounds online apologised to the former Governor of Rivers State, Melford Okilo, and other leaders in the region for questioning their decision to work with the North.
Ijaw Vs Yoruba
Asari Dokubo stated that the Ijaws and Niger Deltans will no longer work with the Yorubas, noting they are betrayers.
He vowed that the people of the Niger Delta would henceforth only work with the northerners by forming an alliance with them.
He said: “I apologize to our fathers Melford Okilo and Prieye that they were not wrong for forming an alliance with the North, and as young men, we will now start same alliance with the North now.

“As from today, I will work! Work! to form alliance with the North and crush any other opposition, because for those who hate us, we do not mean anything to them. Whatever Ijaw people do does not mean anything to them.
“All over Ijaw land, we will spread the message that it is only northerners who can work with Ijaw people !…. We cannot work with Yoruba people they are betrayers !!!….. We risked our lives, voted and did everything and this is what we get ?”
