Asari Dokubo
In a statement on Saturday by Eric Omare, the Ijaw Youth Council
(IYC) spokesman, the South-South group, has dismissed the rumoured
attack by military personnel on Alhaji Asari Dokubo, founder of the
Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force (NDPVF).
Punch reported that there were widespread rumours of Asari being killed in an alleged confrontation with soldiers on Saturday morning.
IYC have now said that the former militant warlord was in good
health and there was never a confrontation between him and military men.
IYC, an umbrella body for Ijaw youths, also called for the
immediate withdrawal of troops from the region particularly the creeks
of the Niger Delta following the recent ceasefire deal reached with
militant youths and stakeholders in the region.
The group stated that there was no reason for military deployment
in the region, adding that such was already causing tension and fear
among people in the region.
