Asari-Dokubo: Jonathan has already won the 2015 election

Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, a former Niger Delta militant, says he is confident that President Goodluck Jonathan will win the 2015 presidential election.

Speaking at the funeral of his grandmother, Preba Abigail Prince Ekineh, at Buguma, Rivers state, Asari declared: “Goodluck Jonathan will win in whatever way they want him; he will win. My confidence is that he has already won.”

However, he added that he was uncertain about who would win the 2015 gubernatorial election in Rivers state because there was injustice in state.

“The injustice in Rivers state is that one set of people cannot rule. Rivers state is a multi-ethnic state and all the ethnic nationalities must have access to government,” he said.

“So whoever is encouraging this perfidy does not mean well for the people because it will explode one day. The only way out is for justice to be done in the state and that means an Ogoni candidate should be fielded in all the political parties.”

In 2013, Asari-Dokubo, a staunch supporter of President Jonathan, threatened that there would be bloodshed should the president lose the 2015 election.
