TRENDING: Asari Dokubo says man criticising Tinubu in viral video is his brother — not him
Asari Dokubo, Niger Delta activist, says the man seen in a viral video criticising President Bola Tinubu over the prevailing economic hardship is his brother.
The clip of a man with an uncanny resemblance and similar physical features to Dokubo recently made the round on social media.
Dancing and sermonising, the protagonist asked Tinubu to step down over the pervasive hunger in the land.
He lamented the rising cost of petrol and other items, adding that Nigerians cannot continue living in this manner.
Several social media users concluded that the personality in the video is Dokubo, a sworn ally and supporter of the president.
Reacting to the claims in a clip, the Niger Delta activist said persons insisting he is the one in the viral video are those who hate him.
Dokubo said the figure in the viral video is his “brother from Bayelsa state”.
“I’m not the one in the video. He is my brother, Theophilus. He is from Bayelsa state and I’m from Rivers state. He is from Nembe, while I’m from Kalabari,” he said.
“But we are brothers. Very good brothers. Don’t mistake me for him.”
He reiterated that Tinubu remains his friend, adding that the president should be allowed to complete his second term.
