I’ll support Tinubu again, he saved me when Obasanjo buried me alive – Asari Dokubo

Former Niger Delta militant leader, Asari Dokubo, on Tuesday disclosed that President Bola Tinubu saved him from the fury of ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Dokubo said Tinubu’s intervention saved him when Obasanjo buried him alive.

He spoke while appearing on Arise TV’s Morning Show, where he recounted his relationship with Tinubu, which dates back to the military era.

According to Dokubo: “I supported Mr. President because I knew him before he became senator, president, and, God willing, I will also know him when he ceases to be president. But this is not about me or Tinubu; it’s about my people.

“When I’m speaking about my people, take me out of the way; I’m an individual. My relationship with Tinubu was very robust, and at all times, the benefit I derived from that relationship was one-way traffic, which was from Tinubu alone.

“His coming out for the presidency was the only time I was able to pay him back, and I did. If he comes out tomorrow, I will still do it because, at the time, Obasanjo buried me alive, but he stood by me. I won’t forget in a hurry.”
