$9.3 arms deal: I’m in Saudi Arabia performing my Hajj – Asari-Dokubo denies involvement

                       
The Leader of the now rested Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force, Alhaji Mujaheed Asari-Dokubo, has refuted involvement in the $9.3 million failed arms deal in South Africa.
DailyPost reports that the All Progressives Congress (APC) had urged the Federal Government to explain the ex-militant’s involvement in the alleged illegal deal.
Asari-Dokubo who spoke to The Nation on telephone from Saudi Arabia where he is currently performing the Hajj, said he was in Nigeria at the time of the incident before moving to Saudi Arabia, and had no idea about it. 
“Can you enter any country without a visa? I’m in Saudi Arabia performing my Hajj as the Amirul Hajj of Bayelsa State and this can be confirmed. I flew Flynass from Kaduna on September 27.
“My passport is here. I flew Arik airline from Lagos on 27th and went to Kaduna where I flew Flynass airline to Saudi Arabia,” he said.
