President Bola Tinubu is currently meeting with prominent Niger Delta leader and former leader agitator in the oil-rich region, Asari Dokubo, at the State House.
Although the agenda of the meeting is unclear, it is believed that Dokubo is likely to be part of the President’s ongoing consultations with opinion leaders from the Niger Delta region.
Dokubo arrived at the Aso Rock Villa around 11:00 am after which he went into a closed door session with the President.
Recall that three weeks ago, Dokubo had organised Niger Delta youths to attend the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal sitting in Abuja.
Dokunbo had asked Nigerians to hold him accountable if the president’s administration fails.
While speaking on the impact of the fuel subsidy discontinuance, he argued that former presidents Goodluck Jonathan and Muhammadu Buhari failed to do what Tinubu has done in the past weeks of his administration.
“If Ahmed Bola Tinubu fails, hold me responsible. I am unapologetic. I have known him since 1992 and I know what he stands for, and can stand in the gap between him and the people and say this,” he said.
“This is a step my brother Goodluck failed to take when he had the opportunity. The same step Buhari could not take and Tinubu took it from his first day at the office,” the Niger Delta agitator added.
