The self-appointed viral attack dog of President Good luck Jonathan, Alhaji Mujahid Asari Dokubo, is a Self-confessed terrorist and self-styled militant, who had previously taken up arms against the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Certainly, Asari Dokubo is an adept terrorist who is one of the harbingers and purveyors of terrorism in Nigeria.
If Nigeria is not a country where vital State Institutions have virtually failed somebody like Asari Dokubo should be cooling his heels in imprisonment because he waged and levied War against his Father land under the guise of fighting for the emancipation of Niger-Delta.
Asari Dokubo received terrorism and insurgency training in the Republic of Libya for several years. This is not an allegation. Asari himself confessed to this fact.
He also confessed to the fact that he had received funding from the late leader of Libya , Muammar Al-Qaddafi running to millions of dollars to de stabilised the West African sub Region.
The Holy Bible says that out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks! “You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks”. Matthew 12:34.
Muammar Al-Qaddafi was widely regarded in the Western and the United States of American diplomatic and security circles throughout the 1980s as the principal financier of international terrorism.
Qaddafi was alleged to have ordered the bombing of Pan American Flight 103 that exploded in December, 1988 over Lockerbie, Scotland with more than 200 men, women, children and crew on board.
Asari Dokubo is an utterly rambunctious and uncouth fellow. He uses the vile, acerbic and abusive language to address issues, so much so that sometimes it seems as if he is on the verge of insanity. He is compulsive liar.
Asari Dokubo has openly boasted that he would wage War against the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the event President Jonathan fails to win the 2015 Presidential election.
Asari Dokubo, ignorantly but boisterously and mischievous talk, as if only votes from the South/South matter and will win the presidential elections for President Jonathan.
He has forgotten that the entire country is the constituency of who desire to win the presidential seat. Asari Dokubo as a confessed terrorist has forgotten that democracy thrives on consensus, dialogue, persuasion and respect for the supreme will of the people. Democracy is anathema to terrorism, threats and intimidation.
Asari Dokubo is suffering from Buhariphobia! He has appointed himself as a knight to shoot down General Buhari through the use of scurrilous and insulting language; and leveling frivolous and spurious allegations against him.
Asari Dokubo’s latest allegation that General Buhari received funding in 2011 for his presidential campaign from the late Qaddafi, is spurious, distasteful and a figment of his fertile imagination.
However, every discerning observer know how Buhari’s campaign struggle in 2011 over paucity of funds so much so that General Buhari was not able to campaign in some States of the country.
The allegation is bizarre and underscored the fact that Asari Dokubo is obsessed with and indeed paid to bring down General Buhari just to please President Jonathan.
I therefore urge Nigerians to take whatever comes out of the mouth of a treacherous fellow such as Asari Dokubo with a pinch of the salt.
I think that Asari Dokubo has undeniably gone berserk since the assassination attempt in Kaduna last week on General Buhari. Could it be a case of the Guilty is Afraid?
The Guilty Are Afraid is a 1957 thriller novel by the late American Novelist, James Hadley Chase. The novel is set against the background of a wealthy gang leader in the crime ridden city on the United States of America Pacific Coast, where the principal character, Lew Brandon looks for his murderer who disposed of his partner, Jack Sheppey.
Otherwise why would Asari Dokubo suggest that the assassination attempt on General Buhari by a suicidal bomber was staged managed by General Buhari because General Buhari was not known to be using an armoured plated vehicle before the incident!
How did Asari Dokubo know that General Buhari’s security was not formidable as it was before the incident?
Surely Asari Dokubo knows so much! Is this, why Asari Dokubo has been fidgety and edgy since the incident?
Asari Dokubo needs to explain to the Police and other security agencies what he knows about General Buhari’s security prior to the dastardly attack on him. [myad]

FUND 2 Left CAN President Pastor Ayo Orishejafor and the Sultan of Sokoto at the Fund Raising Dinner for Victims of Terrorism at the State
House Abuja Yesterday.
FUND 3 AND 4 FROM Left President Goodluck Jonathan and wife Dame Patience Jonathan Deputy Senate President Senator Ike Ekweremadu, Chairman of the Fund Raising Dinner Gen Ty Danjuma , Wife of the Senate President Mrs David Mark and Chairman PDP Alh Adamu Muazu at the Fund Raising Dinner for Victims of Terrorism at the State House Abuja today.
Presidential spokesman, Dr. Reuben Abati has confirmed that President Goodluck Jonathan approved the appointment of Assistant Inspector General (AIG) Suleiman Abba as the new Inspector-General of Police.
Part of the statement from Dr. Abati goes thus:
“AIG Abba, currently the Assistant Inspector-General of Police in charge of Zone 7, comprising Abuja, Kaduna and Niger states, replaces the incumbent Inspector-General of Police, IGP Mohammed Abubakar who proceeds on statutory retirement today having completed 35 years in service.
The incoming Inspector-General, a lawyer, hails from Jigawa State and is an alumnus of the Nigerian Institute of Policy and Strategic Studies.
Positions previously held by him in the Police include Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of the Criminal Investigation Department, FCT Command, Deputy Force Secretary and Commissioner of Police, Rivers State.
His appointment is with effect from Friday, August 1, 2014.” [myad]
The National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (rtd.) has said that the Presidency had no hand in the last week’s bomb attack on the convoy of a former military leader, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd).
Dasuki spoke while fielding questions from State House correspondents today after the Council of State meeting during which the issue of the attack on Buhari came up for discussion.
He said that as far back as February, leader of the Boko Haram sect, Shekau, had threatened Buhari and some others, calling them infidels that must be dealt with.
“We said something about the attack on Buhari and Sheik Dahiru Bauchi. There was a threat as far back as February this year issued by Shekau, calling them infidels by name and position saying that they were in trouble and they were going to see.
“Well, the government was not responsible, and if you say that the government was responsible in the case of General Buhari, why don’t you say the same in the case of Sheik Dahiru Bauchi?
“We said it not because we had facts but because it is what sells the paper. That is the most unfortunate thing. And we want to say that it was not only General Buhari, there were others mentioned too.” [myad]
Suleiman Abba, until yesterday, the Assistant Inspector-General (AIG) in charge of Zone 7, Abuja, has emerged as the new Inspector-General of Police. He succeeds Mohammed Dikko Abubakar, who completed the maximum allowed 35 years of service yesterday.
Though no official statement has come from either the Presidency or the Police Headquarters, the outgoing Inspector General told newsmen in the Villa this evening that Abba is a competent officer to take over from him as “I go home to rest.”
Abubakar led the new IGP to see President Jonathan privately shortly after the Council of State meeting.
When confronted, Abba declined comment as he crawled quietly into his car and drove off.
Abba was said to have been selected yesterday, in Abuja after a marathon meeting between President Goodluck Jonathan and the Police council, made up of the 36 state governors and the Chairman of the Police Service Commission, Mike Mbama Okiro (IGP, rtd).
It was gathered that the authority settled for AIG Abba following convincing arguments that the leadership of the nation’s security forces will be concentrated in a particular zone of the country should the new IG be appointed from the list of names earlier submitted to the President.
It was gathered that President Jonathan was also under pressure by the North, who insisted that appointing the next IGP from the South-South geopolitical zone would be counter-productive, especially with the security challenges facing the nation.
They were said to have argued that with the Chief of Army Staff, Lt General K. T. J. Minimah from South-South, Police Service Commission Chairman, Okiro from the South-South, an IGP from same zone would have been interpreted to mean deliberate ploy to use security forces to clamp down on the opposition expected from the North in the 2015 elections.
Five senior officers were said to have been considered as the new IGP and they include one Deputy Inspector General of Police from South-South, another DIG from North West, and three AIG’s, from North West, South –South and North Central zones. During debates at the meeting for a new police boss, a group argued that Abba’s appointment will amount to favouring a particular zone since he is from the zone as his predecessor as well as former IGP Hafiz Ringim. Another group, however, countered that during the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, former IGP Tafa Balogun and the Chief of Air Staff then came from the same zone. Eventually, everybody agreed on the choice of AIG Suleiman Abba as the new IGP.
Abba had served as the Commissioner of Police in charge Rivers State, Deputy Force Sec, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Deputy Force Sec), Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of State CID, FCT Police Command.
He was also ADC to Mrs. Abacha during the tenure of General Sani Abacha as military head state. The incumbent IGP Mohammed Dahiru Abubakar, whose tenure expires tomorrow, July 31, 2014, was appointed the 16th indigenous IGP in January 2012.
President Jonathan feels comfortable with the AIG zone 7, Suleiman Abba, having worked with him in Abuja for almost two years now.
Abba is an alumnus of the Nigerian Institute of Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPPS), Kuru, reports claim.
Nigeria’s Minister of Sports, Dr. Tanmmy Danagogo has vowed to deal with any coach or official who encourage athletes to use drugs or any banned substance in sports in the country. Dr. Danagogo in his first official reaction to the drug failure of miss Chika Amalaha, in Glasgow, Scotland, said he would introduce the use of MRI as condition for double checking the status of athletes before any major competition. “I will ensure the use of MRI scanning devices amongst others, as routine checks on our age-grade players, and pre-competition drug-test regime on athletes generally.” The minister made it clear that severe consequences await “any official and coache who is found to encourage or condone cheating of any kind.” He stressed that such officials would face severe sanctions. “The reported first sample drug-test failure of our female weightlifter is very embarrassing and I feel so saddened although I am still convinced that the 16 year old Amalaha is innocent and hopes that she doesn’t fail the ‘confirmation test. “Nevertheless, I will use my office as Sports Minister to enshrine tenets of integrity and fair competition in our sports, especially as it concerns the youths.” [myad]
President of Liberia, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf has declared a state of emergency on Ebola disease to enable the government take a more robust approach to deal with the outbreak. She also declared tomorrow, Friday, a work-free day to enable health workers in the country to disinfect and chlorinate all public facilities.
In a nationwide broadcast late Wednesday, Sirleaf also ordered the closure of all the schools in the West African country in an attempt to address the spread of the deadly Ebola Virus Disease (EVD).
“I hereby proclaim a State of Public Emergency to enable us take a more robust approach to deal with the Ebola outbreak,” Reuters quoted him as saying in a speech late on Wednesday, adding that the measures would initially last between 60 and 90 days.
The President went on to present a National Action Plan against Ebola that would try to contain the spread of the disease. Her office said she was not only worried about taking care of those afflicted, but would focus of the goal of preventing new cases.
As part of the plan, government officials will no longer be allowed to travel unless it is “absolutely necessary and critical” and all non-essential staff — to be determined by the minister or head of an agency — have been placed on 30-day compulsory leave.
Sirleaf revealed that the Liberian government had provided an initial contribution of $5 million for the commencement of immediate implementation of the plan.
She also suspended her participation at the US-Africa Leaders Summit in Washington DC next week, and thus sent the Vice President, Joseph Boakai and a handful of officials to attend the summit on her behalf.
Last week, Liberia closed it borders with neighbouring countries, only leaving a border entry points open. The nation’s bureau of immigration and naturalisation will intensify supervision and control of the border areas in conjunction with health authorities, to ensure strict adherence to announced preventive measures, including preliminary testing for fever.
“Other measures, without exceptions are that all schools are ordered closed pending further directive from the ministry of education,” she said.
“All markets at border areas, including Foya, Bo Waterside and Ganta, are hereby ordered closed until further notice.
“As previously directed, video clubs and entertainment centres must have improved sanitation, including facilities for the washing of hands prior to entering and exiting as well as to reducing opening hours, and the number of individuals permitted to enter those facilities. All citizens are seriously advised to avoid public amusement and entertainment centres.
“When these measures are instituted, only health care workers will be permitted to move in and out of those areas. Food and other medical support will be provided to those communities and affected individuals.
“The ministry of health and relevant agencies are also to consider the cremation of all victims of the deadly Ebola virus. This measure is intended to avoid tampering with the dead and contaminating water sources.”
At about the same time of Sirleaf’s address, President of Sierra Leone, Ernest Bai Koroma, was declaring a state of emergency for Ebola and cancelled his participation at the US-Africa Leaders Summit. [myad]
Against the background of the discordant calls from across Nigeria on citizens living in parts of the country outside their states to go back to their states of origin, President Goodluck Jonathan has rallied governors and past leaders of the country to look at how they can stem the disintegration. It is on record that the United States of America predicted over a year ago that Nigeria will disintegrate in 2015. Calls from various ethnic groups across the country, on their people in other parts of the country to return home or people ordering people from other parts of the country to return to their states of origin appear to be pointing to such disintegration. At an emrgency Council of State meeting held today at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, President Jonathan, the governors of 36 states and past leaders of the country resolved to ask states that are thinking of deporting none indigines from their states or registering them for any purpose to stop it immediately. “Anyone with sense of history would recall that Nigeria civil war began in similar manner,” the Council lamented. The leaders frowned at calls by ethnic groups on their people either to return home from states that are not their home states or ordering people to leave their states. The meeting was attended by most of the governors and or deputy governors, former leaders like forme President Shehu Shagari, former military President General Ibrahim Babangida, former Heads of State, General Abdulsalami, General Yakubu Gowon, Ernest Shonekan as well as the National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki and other security chiefs. Briefing newsmen shortly after the meeting, the governors of Akwa Ibom State, Godswill Akpabio, Niger state, Babangida Aliyu, Enugu state, Sulivan Chime and Col. Dasuki said the leaders were worried by the dangerous development in the polity. They said that the leaders have asked governors to stop not only the registration or deportation of Nigerians from any part of the country but expressed disgust at the concept of indigeneship in the Nigerian political set up. They said that a committee was set up at the meeting to fashion out the modality for Nigeria to attain true unity even before 2015. The committee, headed by governor Akpabio of Akwa Ibom state, has two months to submit its report to the government. Othe members of the committee are governor Babangida of Niger state, governor Ibrahim Dankwambo of Gombe state, governor Aliyu Magatakarda Wammako of Sokoto and governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo state. Some of the things the committee is expected to look into, the governors said, would include the issue of discriminatory school fees and contract appointments into civil service for none indegines in some states.

President Goodluck Jonathan has made it clear that no amount of terrorit attacks in the country will intimidate his government in providing education to the citizenry. The President expressed this determination in a statement by his special adviser on media and publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, in reation to the Wednesday bomb blasts at the Aminu Kano College of Islamic and Legal Studies and Tuesday attacks on two mosques in Potiskum, Yobe State. The President directed the Armed Forces, Police and other national security agencies to further enhance security around educational facilities in states prone to terrorist attacks. “No amount of intimidation and violence would stampede the government into abandoning its goal of giving education a new lease of life and opening up access to all young Nigerians who wish to improve themselves.” President Jonathan deplored the continue terrorist assault on Kano and condemned the repeated targeting of worshipers as well as innocent students who are the nation’s future. According to him, “the callous attacks on soft targets fully affirm that the terrorists are nothing but bloodthirsty adherents of a warped and retrogressive ideology.” [myad]

Asari Dokubo As Harbinger And Purveyor Of Terrorism In Nigerian, By Okoi Obono-Obla

Certainly, Asari Dokubo is an adept terrorist who is one of the harbingers and purveyors of terrorism in Nigeria.
