“Yoruba People Are Betrayers, We’ll Form Alliances With North” – Asari Dokubo [Video]

Former militant leader, Asari Dokubo has accused the Yoruba community of betraying the Ijaw and Niger Delta people despite their support for President Bola Tinubu in the 2023 election.

In a video circulating online, Dokubo expressed regret to former Rivers State Governor Melford Okilo and other regional leaders for doubting their past decisions to ally with the North.

The former militants emphasized that the Ijaw and Niger Delta people will no longer work with the Yoruba, whom he labeled as “betrayers.”

Asari Dokubo pledged that the Niger Delta would focus on strengthening ties with the northern region, forming a lasting alliance.

He said, “I apologize to our fathers Melford Okilo and Prieye that they were not wrong for forming an alliance with the North, and as young men, we will now start same alliance with the North now.

“As from today, I will work! Work! to form alliance with the North and crush any other opposition, because for those who hate us, we do not mean anything to them. Whatever Ijaw people do does not mean anything to them.

“All over Ijaw land, we will spread the message that it is only northerners who can work with Ijaw people !…. We cannot work with Yoruba people they are betrayers !!!….. We risked our lives, voted and did everything and this is what we get ?”
