Wike Is Abuja’s Chief Security Officer, He Must Be Respected By The Military: Asari Dokubo

Wike is Abuja’s chief security officer, he must be respected by the military: Asari Dokubo. Asari Dokubo, the Niger Delta activist, has condemned the confrontation between Nyesom Wike, the minister of the federal capital territory (FCT), and a military officer over a disputed land in Abuja.

On Tuesday, videos surfaced online showing Wike in a heated argument with military personnel at a site in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

In the footage, Wike is seen stepping in to defuse the situation, separating his security detail from the soldiers as tensions escalated.

Reacting to the development in a video posted on Facebook on Wednesday, Dokubo said Wike’s authority as a minister of the country must be respected by the military.

The Niger Delta activist said the military officer involved in the heated argument with the FCT minister should be reprimanded and court-martialled by the appropriate authorities.

“I’m not taking sides with Wike; I’m taking sides with what is the law, the rule, and the convention,” he said.

“What happened yesterday; in any sane society, that person would be reprimanded and detained.

“The confrontation with the military man and the minister of FCT is uncalled for.

“The minister is the governor of the FCT, and constitutionally, he is the chief security officer outside the president of the city of Abuja.”
