Former Niger Delta militant leader Asari Dokubo has slammed the recent United States airstrikes in Sokoto State, claiming they caused no damage and failed to hit any bandits.

Asari alleged that the missiles were dropped on empty land, rendering the operation pointless. He added that only drones were used, describing the airstrikes as fake and staged.

In a video shared on X, he challenged the Nigerian government to provide evidence that even a single terrorist was neutralized. He also emphasized that Nigeria’s sovereignty prevents the deployment of US troops on its soil.

Asari reiterated that he is not intimidated by the US or its leadership, insisting the strikes only endangered innocent civilians instead of targeting criminal elements.

“The US army strike in Sokoto did not harm any bandits. They only dropped bombs in an open field, endangering the lives of innocent people. Do you think I’m afraid of President Donald Trump?”
