Dokubo expressed his frustration, stating, “Wike’s soldiers and police have been flying over my house in two helicopters. I have the capacity to deal with them.

Nigeria cannot submit to Wike, and neither will the people of Rivers. I have the capability to handle this, and the government is aware of it. They should tell Wike to back off.”
At 60, Dokubo emphasized his fearlessness, saying, “I have never been afraid of death; I embrace it. I didn’t seek to shoot down their helicopter, but I will if necessary. I swear by Allah.”

He further warned, “Whoever is commanding them should be cautioned. Enough is enough. Tinubu should hand over. Wike is nothing without the powers of his office. Let them strip him of that, and we’ll see what happens.”
Dokubo concluded by affirming his commitment to voting, stating, “I will vote, and you will see me at the polls. Results will be announced, chairmen will be sworn in, and we’ll see what unfolds.”
