Eshanekpe, who x-rayed the life of Asari Dokubo during the presidency of former President Goodluck Jonathan, said Dokubo was part of the problem of the region, noting that he derailed the attention of the former president from serving the nation.

Dokubo had, in an interview, appraised the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, scoring it zero in performance and warning Vice President Yemi Osibanjo to stop visiting Ijaw land in his peace pursuit across the region.

He faulted Buhari’s administration, saying there is nothing to appraise in his government, asking: “Is there anything to appraise in the Buhari led government? What is there to appraise? Can you multiply zero? If you multiply zero, what would it give you?”

Dokubo, who denied making inflammatory statement during the campaign leading to the presidential election in 2015, added that the oil in Ijaw land belongs to Ijaw people, hence Vice President Osibanjo should perambulating Ijaw land because of the oil in the area.

He challenged Dokubo to own up on the threats he issued against the emergence of Buhari prior to the presidential election at a meeting in Yenagoa and others he publicly issued at different for a, noting that Niger Deltans know him as a demagogue who thrives on crisis to his advantage.

The coalition noted that it was unfortunate for Dokubo as his threats no longer hold waters because the people of Niger Delta, Ijaw inclusive, have chosen the path of peace and do not need a talkative and mischief maker like Dokubo to stoke crisis for the region, adding that he is alone in his ignoble path.

Eshanekpe said nobody could reverse the success in peace building already achieved in the region by the current administration, noting that except the region’s interest is not paramount to Dokubo, he could go it alone and leave others out of his unrighteous acts.

Also, Eshanekpe fired Reno Omokri, former special assistant on new media to former President Goodluck Jonathan, describing him as a poor manager of failure, saying he is yet to embrace the realities on ground.
