Asari Dokubo mocks detained IPOB’s Kanu, calls him a con man
Leader of Movement for Emancipation of Niger Delta (MEND) Asari Dokubo has blasted detained leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu, dismissing him as a con man.
He accused Kanu of defrauding Southeast masses, alleging he receives defence funds without rendering accounts.
He expressed delight with the re-arrest of Kanu, recalling he had promised to smoke him out from hiding.
In a viral video sighted by The Nation, the Ijaw nation activist further accused Nnamdi Kanu of demanding payment from all Biafrans on monthly basis to be part of the Biafra nation when actualised.
“You are demanding that all Biafrans should pay money to you on monthly basis or they will not be allowed to enter Biafra.
“Doesn’t that make you a con man, an extortionist? Now you allege, the law says he who alleges must prove, that you gave me N20 million, video doesn’t lie.
“When I started it last year leading to the election, you were so cowardly not to respond to me. You sent your followers to respond to me and they said a lot of things and I demanded the evidence that I demanded N200 million from you.
“I have never been a member of IPOB, you gave me N20 million, tell us is it by bank transfer, is it by cash, who brought the cash to me. I’m waiting. Produce the evidence.”
Describing Kanu as a liar and a con man, he also challenged him to show what he does for a living.
“Where are you working? Who is paying you? Where do you get the money to gallivant everywhere? Do you pick money? Do you print money? Or does money fall from heaven?
“You called me a pipeline contractor, yes we make billions. So which one are you doing” he queried further.
He accused Nnamdi Kanu of preying on the gullibility of innocent Biafrans by extorting money from them.
