Security operatives raid Dokubo-Asari’s Abuja home
For more than three hours on Thursday, armed security operatives searched through the Abuja home of Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari.

As at 3pm when our correspondent visited Adzope Crescent in Wuse area of Abuja, a section of the crescent was sealed off and no motorist or passer-by was allowed to move close to house No. 9 where Dokubo-Asari, the leader of Niger Delta People‘s Volunteer Force, lives.

“We are conducting an operation, you must go back immediately,” a man in grey suit barked out.

But security authorities have denied knowledge of the raid

Six men wielding automatic rifles stood guard beside a light green Peugeot Expert marked Abuja CY 568 ABJ in which other armed men patiently sat.

They firmly refused to respond to our correspondent’s question on whether or not they suspected that illegal arms or any other prohibited items were being kept in the house.

Lawyer to Dokubo-Asari, Mr. Festus Keyamo, told our correspondent on the telephone that three buses had conveyed an unspecified number of security operatives and armed mobile policemen to his client’s house.

He said, “Three buses conveyed them to my client’s house this afternoon and they said that they had a search warrant.”

When contacted on Thursday afternoon, spokesmen of both the State Security Services and the Federal Capital Territory Command of the Nigeria Police insisted that they were not aware of such an operation being executed on Thursday.

“I cannot confirm that the operation was done by us; we are not the only security or intelligence organisation.

“I have made calls to the office from where I am but I am yet to get any indication about whether it was from us or not,” the SSS’ Head of Public Affairs, Mr. Tony Okoye, told our correspondent.

Police Public Relations Officer at the Federal Capital Territory Command, Mr. Ahmed Musa, a Superintendent of Police, also said that he was not aware of any such operation by the police.

“I do not know about anything like that but I want to reach the Commissioner of Police for confirmation,” he said but he could not be reached on telephone again shortly afterwards.
