The All Progressive Congress (APC) have written a letter to
the Inspector -General of Police asking for questioning of Asari Dokubo on the
threat he made against the the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai
Mohammad.
The APC in the letter asked the Inspector -General of Police
to invite Asari-Dokubo for questioning over the comments he made on an online
newspaper.
The party said it finds Asri-Dokubo’s comments that he would
not give a civilized response to Mr Mohammed by suing the APC Spokesperson for
his remarks but that he (Asari Dokubo) warned that he will resort to “self-help
by using his hands and any other means to deal with Mr Mohammed ”
The letter in part read thus.
“The attention of our party has been drawn to comment made
by the leader of the Niger Delta People Volunteer Force (NDPVF) Mr Mujahid
Dokubo-Asarri that included a threat against the our National Publicity
Secretary Alhaji Lai Muhammad.
“The threat, contained in an interview granted to the online
newspaper Premium Times by Mr Asari Dokubo on Friday October 17th 2014 follows
a press statement which was issued on behalf of the party by Alhaji Lai
Mohammed on oct 8th 2014 asking the Federal Government to explain the reported
presence of Asari Dokubo on the plane that transported the U$9.3 million cash
to South Africa.
“In the interview Mr Asari Dokubo said while he would not
adopt a “civilized response to Mr Mohammed by suing the APC Spokesperson for
his remarks he (Asari Dokubo) warned that should courts fail to deliver justice
he will resort to self-help by using his hands and any other means to deal with
Mr Mohammed ”
“We find this threat totally abhorring, dangerous,
unacceptable and uncivilized and therefor wish to request that you call Mr
Asari Dokubo to order and invite him to explain what he means by his threat to
self-help we have attached a copy of the said interview to this petition”
