El-Rufai Labels Asari Dokubo a 'THUG'

Deputy National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Nasir El-Rufai, on Saturday referred to ex-Niger Delta militant leader, Mujahid Asari-Dokubo as a thug, while responding to questions about his 15hour interrogation at the hands of the State Security Service, on Sahara TV Yesterday Saturday further saying there was no basis for comparing both of them.

“Asari Dokubo is a thug. I don’t compare myself to him. I’ve never taken up arms against the state. I’m a normal human, law-abiding Nigerian. I don’t compare myself with thugs,” El-Rufai said.

The PUNCH reveals the question on the Mind of most Nigerians: Why the SSS has so far not invited Asari-Dokubo for questioning for saying, “Nigeria will burn if President Jonathan is not reelected,” whereas El-Rufai was invited for saying, “If 2015 elections are rigged it might likely lead to violence.”
