“You Want to Call Me a Terrorist, a Man Who Is Fighting Terrorism?” – Dokubo Fires Back at Critics

In a recent video shared on Facebook on Thursday, March 12, 2026, Niger Delta activist and traditional ruler Asari Dokubo responded to accusations labeling him a terrorist, defending his actions and clarifying his stance on security and justice. Watch What Happened.

Dokubo addressed misconceptions surrounding his activism and public statements, emphasizing that being committed to fighting injustice should not be misrepresented as terrorism. He stressed that critics often twist narratives to discredit those who challenge wrongdoing.

“You want to call me a terrorist, a man who is fighting terrorism?” Dokubo said, questioning the logic of branding individuals who oppose violent and corrupt practices as threats. He insisted that his actions are aimed at protecting communities and promoting fairness.

He argued that standing against oppression and unlawful acts is fundamentally different from committing acts of terror, and that labeling him otherwise misrepresents his intentions. Dokubo emphasized the need to distinguish carefully between activism for justice and unlawful violence.

The activist further stated that critics often seek to silence voices that expose corruption, inequality, or exploitation, and that public figures must remain steadfast in the face of such mischaracterizations. He noted that defending one’s community and fighting systemic injustice should not be conflated with terrorism.

Dokubo concluded by urging the public and authorities to assess actions based on purpose and outcomes rather than false labels. He stressed that fighting for justice and protecting the innocent is a noble endeavor, not a criminal act, and called for fairness in evaluating activism.
