He told me that Sule<br \/>\nArmah and Buba Galadima were in Libya ahead of the 2011 elections. Gaddafi<br \/>\ntold me that he had been funding Buhari\u2019s elections in the past.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want the Department of State Security to investigate if these names I<br \/>\nhave mentioned were not in Libya during the period I am talking about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Leader of Niger-Delta Peoples Volunteers Force, said the allegations<br \/>\nthat he paid mastermind of the Kaduna blast N5 Million to carry the<br \/>\ndastardly act is unfounded. He said the allegation is aimed at tarnishing<br \/>\nhis image.<\/p>\n<p>He said it was wrong for President Jonathan to place General Buhari\u2019s life<br \/>\nahead of over 80 Persons that died at the blast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do not work for Jonathan. What the President said was wrong. The life<br \/>\nof Buhari is not more important than 87 people that died in that blast. It<br \/>\nis unfortunate that the President made such a statement. I wonder why the<br \/>\nPresident will be promoting one person above other Nigerians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat statement from the President was very unfortunate. I do not have the<br \/>\ncapacity to tell the President to apologise, but I still insist that he<br \/>\nshould not have made such a statement,\u201d Dokubo-Asari told journalists on<br \/>\nTuesday in Abuja.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to him, \u201cSoon after the blast, a cross-gender person came out<br \/>\nand was arrested. Even the mother of the person arrested said he was<br \/>\ninsane. Social media reports said I gave them N5m to carry out the attack.<br \/>\nThese things are masterminded. The first one is against President Jonathan<br \/>\nand the other one is against me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI did not pay anybody to carry out any assassination attempt on Buhari. I<br \/>\ndo not have anything against him. He is not a threat. He will fail in<br \/>\n2015. For the records, I do not operate a Twitter account and anyone<br \/>\nsaying I tweeted that there would be more attacks is only using my name.\u201d<br \/>\nAsari said those attacking him are afraid of the role he is going to play<br \/>\nduring the 2015 general elections and are bent on silencing him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey want to silence me because they know the role I will play in 2015.<br \/>\nThey have also sponsored reports in Benin Republic that I am the person<br \/>\nfinancing Boko Haram. Another Islamic scholar also said I am the one<br \/>\nsponsoring Boko Haram to destroy the North on behalf of President<br \/>\nJonathan,\u201d Asari said.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Late Libyan strongman, Mouhmar Ghaddafi funded the Presidential elections of General Muhammadu Buhari, leader of the All Progressive Congress, APC, during the 2011 Presidential Elections, Alhaji Mujahid Asari Dokuboh has&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":25291,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exclusive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
