I watched with great dismal the reckless and senseless statement made by ASARI DOKUBO in response to the recent interview granted by our revered Oba of Benin Kingdom in Lagos State wherein he reminded the world how our ancestors founded Eko which is now known as Lagos State.
For those who read books, conduct research at all times and understand our rich history, they have humbly and unanimously agreed to the profound assertions made by our revered Oba of Benin Kingdom but as usual and unfortunately, the likes of Asari Dokubo couldn’t use his head to think before he opened his mouth to dabble into a sacred matter.
For those who don’t know Asari Dokubo, during 2012 Edo Governorship elections which was contested between Comrade Adams Oshiomhole of APC and General Charles Airhiavbere of PDP, I was instrumental to Asari Dokubo dominance and that of his team before and after the elections which saw the emergence of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole as Governor of Edo State in 2012. “Like they always say Don’t Judge A Book By Its Cover”, thus this assertion reminded me of how Asari Dokubo abandoned and denied his boys numbering over 300 at Benin byepass military check point he imported from Port Harcourt for the purpose of the 2012 governorship elections a night to the elections but it took my bold and fearless intervention to rescue his boys while Asari Dokubo was shivering in Government House. Thus, a man like Asari Dokubo that claim to be leading people who couldn’t rescue his boys at the most difficult moment can best be described as a sheep.
Having been studying Asari Dokubo for two decades especially the unpatriotic and fearful role he played while abandoning and denying his boys a night to Edo Governorship elections in 2012, then it is crystal clear that Asari Dokubo only bark when he is surrounded with his boys and doesn’t have mind as being portrayed by him.
Therefore, I want to advise him to be mindful with the way and manner he respond to any issues that are associated with our revered Throne and Benin Kingdom.
