Hehehehe..na wa oooo....A former
Niger-Delta militant, Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, says with the defeat of
President Goodluck Jonathan, he and other militants might be forced to
‘return to creeks.’
Asari-Dokubo,
who hails from the same state as Jonathan, said the voting pattern
showed that the South-West and the North ganged up again the South-South
and South-East geo-political zone.
The
ex-militant said in a statement by his spokesperson, Rex Anighoro, that
it was unfair that the minorities were being emasculated by the majority
ethnic groups.
He said he feared that the government of the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari, would be vicious.
Asari-Dokubo
said, “The conditions that advanced the need to embrace the creeks have
been sadly re-energised, it is clear that a vicious government who may
maim and murder the voice of the so called minorities may have just been
birthed.
“Indeed integration is nonexistent as regional gang ups and supremacy is symbolic with this victory.”
The
ex-militant, who had in January said he and his colleagues would wreak
havoc if Jonathan lost, praised the President for being a true
statesman.
He said it was the struggle of the militants that led to the Jonathan presidency.
Asari-Dokubo said since the South-South had lost the presidency, ex-militants would meet to decide the next line of action.
He said,
“While President Jonathan enjoys his moments and basks in the euphoria
of a now world renowned statesman having congratulated Muhammadu Buhari,
we must quickly be reminded that our struggle was never about Jonathan
or about the presidency.
“President
Jonathan was a beneficiary of our struggle, our sweat and blood that
many bled and died for, he was never in the struggle and he can never
wish away our collective march forward for statesmanship.
“Yes
indeed to an extent he was a mitigating factor in self determination
pursuit as we went on sabbatical, this mitigation he seem to have
willingly repudiated. The days coming will be critical, we shall study
all the conditions and consult widely before determining the way going
forward for our collective existence and survival as a people. The days
coming shall either drive the quest of integration or further separate
us.”
