Imprisoned Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) leader Namdi Kanu should not be released.
According to former Niger Delta warlord Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, After meeting Tinubu in Abuja on Friday, Asari-Dokubo addressed journalists and said Kanu is a criminal who must be given a chance to answer for his actions.
He said Kanu threw petrol on the fires of #EndSARS when he was free roaming during the campaign to end SARS.
According to him, now that he has been caught, “what about the people who have died? It is criminal.
He must be brought before the law.”
Asari-Dokubo argued that releasing Kano was tantamount to avenging a crime and avenging the brutal killing of innocent people.
“He must face the law for the actions and incitements he committed,” he said.
He also accused the military of stealing oil from the Niger Delta.
“We have to make it very clear to the Nigerian public that 99 percent of oil theft can be attributed to the Nigerian military, especially the army and navy,” he said.
Asari-Dokubo added that he and others in the Niger Delta had assured the president that there would be zero oil theft and destruction in the Niger Delta.
“We will work with the NPPCL and the IOCs to ensure zero oil exposure,” he said.
Asari-Dokubo said the blackmail of the Nigerian state by the Nigerian military was shameful.
He argued that people always hear the false narratives that the military did not have enough weaponry to fight oil theft.
“So this blackmail must end.
They have enough resources to fight,” he said.
