Asari Dokubo caught-up in the $9.3m arms deal.

The All Progressives Congress through its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed,saidy ex-militant, Alhaji Mujaheed Dokubo-Asari, was involved in the $9.3m arms deal which led to the

arrest of two Nigerians and an Israeli in South Africa. The party, therefore, asked President Goodluck Jonathan to explain to Nigerians what Dokubo Asari was doing on the plane where the money was found and confiscated by the South African authorities.

Dokubo-Asari had distanced himself from the $9.3m botched arms deal.

Dokubo-Asari in a telephone interview with journalists from Saudi Arabia where he is presently performing the 2014 Hajj, said the last time he visited South Africa was in 2002 and could not have gone to any country without a visa.

He asked, “Can you enter any country without a visa?

9mx answer
If you ask me,  Na who I go ask? .....

He continued,  No person can enter any country without a visa.

The APC held thier ground on the issue saying, that the Federal Government had a lot of questions to answer on the deal, including whether Dokubo-Asari was the contractor or the end user, who he was procuring arms for and for what purpose.

The APC also said the questions became pertinent because even the National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.), who issued the end- user agreement for the purchase, “does not and cannot purchase arms for any of the armed services.”

 It therefore went further to ask,
“Nigerians will therefore like to know on whose behalf Asari Dokubo was purchasing arms.

If Asari Dokubo is really linked to this matter, then it is very crucial because Asari Dokubo has threaren in some of his videos uploaded in youtube that Nigeria will not know peace if my dear President Jonathan, is not re-elected.
 Therefore, Nigerians will like to know
whether he has started stockpiling arms to make his threat a reality.

Asari went further to prove he has no connection in the deal saying,

Presently, I am in Saudi Arabia performing my Hajj as the Amirul Hajj of Bayelsa State and this can be confirmed. I flew Flynass from Kaduna on September 27. So, it is really a shame that Lai Mohammed who has defiled the name of Allah has become a pathological and award-winning liar.

Interesting.
