*ASAWANA IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND!*
Once a fiery and controversial voice in Niger Delta politics, Asari Dokubu, popularly known as “Asawana,” had once thundered, *“Let Donald Trump and the US Army come, we will kpai all of them!”* His words rang out with defiance and were cheered by loyalists and sympathisers of the government, who saw him as fearless and bold.
But bravado has a price.
In a shocking twist, former U.S. President Donald Trump orders airstrikes on ISIS-linked targets in Sokoto, vowing more decisive actions in the region. Suddenly, the warlord’s previous tough talk fizzles out. The once-loud Asawana is silent, missing from the scene entirely.
Where is the “slayer of American soldiers” now?
The same followers who once applauded now ask hard questions. His silence speaks volumes. The same mouth that once roared is now mute, perhaps realising that the global stage plays by different rules.
*Verdict:*
In a world where real power moves silently and swiftly, loud threats without capacity are exposed for what they are; noise!
