Former militant leader, Asari Dokubo, has issued a stark warning in response to alleged military helicopter surveillance over his residence in Rivers State.

In a video on Saturday, circulating on social media, Dokubo claimed that two helicopters had been flying over his home and compound for over 30 minutes, an act he perceived as provocation from the government, the police, and supporters of former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.

“I have the capacity to contain them,” Dokubo said, asserting his ability to resist any form of intimidation from authorities.

“Nigeria cannot surrender to Wike, Rivers people will not surrender to Wike, Ijaw people will not surrender to Wike,” he added.

The 60-year-old activist, known for his strong opposition to government forces in the Niger Delta, stated that he has never been afraid of death and has always embraced it.

“I have never been afraid of death. I’ve always embraced death, so I am not afraid of death. Wike is nobody,” he said.

Dokubo warned that should the helicopters be shot down, the blame should not rest on him. “I didn’t go and look for the helicopter to shoot them down. I will shoot down the helicopter. I swear by Allah that I will shoot down the helicopter,” he said.

In a related development, the Action Peoples Party has won 22 chairmanship positions out of 23 in the Rivers State local government election.

The Chief Election Officer of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission, Justice Adolphus Enebeli, made this known on Saturday in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
