Former Niger Delta agitator turned traditional ruler, Asari Dokubo, has reaffirmed his loyalty to President Bola Tinubu, stating that he cannot abandon him because Tinubu supported him during his darkest times
This comes months after Dokubo publicly accused Tinubu of betrayal following the 2023 elections. In a viral video, he claimed he had spent all his money campaigning for Tinubu, only to feel sidelined after the President took office. At the time, he lamented that the Tinubu he once knew had changed and even vowed to sever ties with the Yoruba people while seeking new alliances with the North.
However, in a recent video, Dokubo appeared to soften his stance, acknowledging that despite past grievances, he remains committed to Tinubu.
“When you have a friend, it is difficult to part ways because you have to look back at yesterday,” he said. “The memories of yesterday will keep playing in your head. In my darkest times, Ahmed Bola Tinubu stood by me. I can’t forget it so easily, no matter what happens.”
