A major political figure in the Niger Delta region, Asari Dokubo, has said that Nigeria’s president-elect, Bola Tinubu is better than African greats like Nelson Mandela, Kwame Nkrumah, Obafemi Awolowo and Nnamdi Azikiwe.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that speaking in a Facebook Live on Tuesday monitored by the newspaper, Dokubo praised the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain as matchless.
The activist is a top campaigner of Tinubu and vigorously campaigned for him in the build-up to the February 25 election.
“Ahmed Bola Tinubu is better than Mandela, he is better than Nkrumah, he is better than Awolowo, he is better than Azikwe. He doesn’t just throw up rhetoric. He is a doer of his talk.
“He replicated it in Lagos. Then you are comparing a fraudster who was governor for eight years who stole the commonwealth of Anambra. There is something wrong with those comparing Peter Obi to Tinubu. You cannot deny us the good of Ahmed Bola Tinubu,” Dokubo said.
