According to a video shared on Facebook on Friday, March 13, 2026, by Mujahid Asari Dokubo, the traditional ruler of Torusarama Piri in Degema Local Government Area of Rivers State criticized what he described as regional and religious inequality in economic opportunities. Speaking during a live broadcast, the former militant leader discussed the disparities in wealth creation and representation across Nigeria’s regions.
During the broadcast, Dokubo stated, “Let them name one person from Igbo land who is a Muslim in Yoruba land or the North made a billionaire,” highlighting what he sees as persistent barriers that prevent qualified individuals from the South-East, particularly Muslims, from attaining significant economic success outside their region.
According to him, opportunities in business and strategic sectors are often concentrated among certain regions, leaving others underrepresented despite having capable professionals and entrepreneurs. See More/Details
