Niger Delta activist Asari Dokubo has broken his silence over a viral video showing a man attacking Bola Tinubu, insisting the person in the clip is not him.
The video, which has been trending across social media, features a man bearing a striking resemblance to Dokubo, dancing and delivering a message urging the president to step down over rising hardship, hunger, and soaring fuel prices.
With many Nigerians convinced it was Dokubo speaking, the outspoken activist has now set the record straight, blaming critics for spreading the falsehood.
“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.”
Dokubo went further to reaffirm his loyalty to Tinubu, making it clear that his stance on the president has not changed.
“That trending video is not me; it’s my brother, Theophilus. I urge Nigerians to stop mistaking me for him. As for me, Tinubu remains my friend, no matter what he does.”
The clarification comes amid heated online debates, as the viral clip continues to stir reactions over Nigeria’s economic challenges and political loyalties.
