Arrest Dokubo, Kuku, Gov Aliyu, Arewa youths, others tell Police

By

The House of Representatives, Arewa Youths and Governor Babangida Aliyu of Niger State were among other Nigerians, who Tuesday, urged the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mohammed Abubakar, to investigate the Presidential Adviser on Niger-Delta Amnesty Programme, Kingsley Kuku, as well as the former leader of Niger Delta Volunteer Force, NDVF, Alhaji Mujaheed Asari-Dokubo, over alleged “inciting statements” capable of causing disaffection in the country.

Both Kuku and Dokubo were alleged to have threatened that there would be upheavals in the country, if President Goodluck Jonathan was not voted into office in 2015 to complete the amnesty programme for the Niger Delta militants.

In Minna, capital of Niger State, Governor Babangida Aliyu, also urged security agencies to arrest the NDVF leader, Dokubo over what he described as his alleged treasonable offence against the nation.

Aliyu spoke just as a former member of the House of Representatives, Dino Melaye  called for arrest of Dokubo following his purported threat that there would be no peace in the country if President Jonathan failed to win the 2015 poll.

Dokubo had at a news conference in Abuja, weekend, said Nigeria will be in crisis if Jonathan was denied a second term in office because, according to him, the current peace being enjoyed in the Niger Delta region was because Jonathan was the President.

Kuku also reportedly threatened in far away United States that there would be chaos in the country if President Jonathan was not re-elected in 2015.

However, in a unanimous motion passed by the House of Representatives, it noted that there was urgent need to check the unguarded statements of the Niger Delta leaders and urged the police high command to investigate them.

The motion for investigation of both Kuku and Dokubo was moved by Ali Sani Madaki (PDP, Kano) on the urgent need to check the utterances of some Nigerians, capable of causing disaffection among people in the country.

Madaki regretted that “while Nigerians are fervently praying for peace in the country, some Nigerians are already sowing seeds of discord amongst the people,” adding that if not checked, the statements credited to Kuku and Dokubo were “capable of creating disunity and disaffection among the good people of Nigeria.’’

50 life lessons you can still learn now that your young.....

You’re stronger than you think you are. Mistakes teach you important lessons. Every time you make one, you’re one step closer to your goal. There is nothing to hold you back except you. You can press forward long after you can’t. It’s a matter of wanting it bad enough. No matter how much progress you make there will always be the people who insist that whatever you’re trying to do is impossible. You are limited only by your own imagination. Let it fly. Perception is reality. Your instincts can be trusted. There is only one question to ask yourself: “What would you do if you were not afraid?” It’s often hard to tell just how close you are to success. The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake. Never let success get to your head, and never let failure get to your heart. You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how ...
