Nigerians on social media have tackled ex-militant leader, Asari Dokubo for protesting and criticizing the government of President Bola Tinubu.
Recall that Dokubo was among prominent figures who led campaigns for Tinubu.
He even asked Nigerians to hold him responsible if the government fails.
However, for months now, the ex-militant has been protesting and condemning the government of Tinubu.
In a trending video, Asari Dokubo directly accused government officials, including governors and ministers, of remaining silent in the face of Nigeria’s pressing issues, particularly the ongoing security challenges plaguing the nation.
Many social media users have taken to various platforms to express their disappointment and skepticism towards Dokubo’s apparent change of stance.
Asari Dokubo that said `hold me responsible if Tinubu fails ‘ he is now calling Governors to speak out.
Next time don’t let anyone fool you into believing that they can hold anything responsible.
