Asari Dokubo recruits new ‘Army’
Former Niger-Delta Militant leader Asari at the weekend initiated new members into his fold. In a video that has gone viral, Dokubo was seen administering what look oath of allegiance of the members. The new boys, who are in white t-shirts, took turns, kneeling before their leader and drank a substance that looked like water. Asari was president of the Ijaw Youth Council for a time beginning in 2001 and later founded the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force which became one of the most prominent armed groups operating in the region.
