Buhari is deaf and dump, lacks integrity – Ex-militant leader, Asari Dokubo

The leader of defunct militant group, Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force, Asari Dokubo, has described President Muhammadu Buhari as a man who lacks integrity.

Dokubo who made the remark against the backdrop of the current economic crisis rocking the nation, stressed that the Buhari’s administration is “deaf and dump.”

The former militant leader insisted that the current administration is corrupt.

Wondering why dollar is being sold to some people at N185 while others are buying at N520, Dokubo maintained that Buhari’s administration is the worst government in Nigeria.

Speaking with Punch, Dokubo said, “This is a deaf and dumb regime. Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo is trying to placate (Niger Deltans) but that is not enough. We are talking about fundamental issues of self-determination and this issue cannot be swept under the carpet by palliative measures and all sorts of things that people are demanding.

“This is the worst government in Nigeria because they came with the mindset to kill but unfortunately, they found it very difficult to kill us.

“People are racketeering with the foreign exchange to the detriment of others. Some people are buying a dollar for N520, while others are buying it for as low as N185 from the Central Bank of Nigeria. So, when people are talking about fighting corruption, I laugh. What manner of corruption could be greater than giving some persons dollars at N185/N190 and others are buying at N520?

“Now that Osinbajo is trying to block those cracks, the dollar and other foreign currencies have started coming down. When I was driving recently, somebody asked me to come down but I told him I have a waist problem and I cannot walk a far distance.

“I am not ashamed to tell somebody I cannot walk a far distance. People like Femi Fani-Kayode, Ayodele Fayose and I raised the alarm that Buhari was not (feeling) fine but people said we would be the ones to die first. We will all die but why should one lie?

“This is the question of integrity and Buhari has no iota of integrity.”
