Asari Dokubo has said that the N81 billion alleged mismanagement by interim management (IMC) is a case of mere pick pocketing .
Asari Dokubo the Leader of Niger Delta Peoples Salvation Force was reacting to the House of Representatives’ probe of the N81 billion mismanagement of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
Asari Dokubu described the mismanagement as a case of pick pocketing and can not be compared to the the amount people from other parts of Nigeria have looted .
He said : “When they talk about (Godswill) Akpabio, tell them about (Abubakar) Malami, when they talk about Joy (Nunieh), tell them about Sadiya (Umar Farouq), when they talk about any senator, tell them about (Ibrahim) Magu.”
Asari Dokubo further likened the current probe of the agency as that of a man calling the police to report a pick pocketing case he witnessed while armed robbers are breaking into his house.
Dokubo said;
“We are talking about N81 billion being pick-pocketed from Niger Delta while the bulk of our money, our resources is being carted away and we are not talking.
“They want me to run after pickpocketers and leave armed robbers that are coming into my house. When they talk about (Godswill) Akpabio, tell them about (Abubakar) Malami, when they talk about Joy (Nunieh), tell them about Sadiya (Umar Farouq), when they talk about any senator, tell them about (Ibrahim) Magu.”
