The Nigeria Police Force has withdrawn the security aides attached to ex-militant Tompolo who is still on the run after being declared wanted by the EFCC.
Tompolo
The Police has withdrawn the security aides approved for Tompolo by the Federal Government since 2009 under the leadership of late President Umaru Yar’Adua.
According to a Vanguard report, the security aides, who had been with Tompolo for nearly six years, were withdrawn soon after Justice Ibrahim Buba issued the first bench warrant against the ex-militant leader, last month.
The report says a source close to Tompolo confirmed the development yesterday.
In addition, security chiefs in the Niger-Delta were reportedly strategizing, yesterday, on how to track down Tompolo following the court order to produce him on February 19.
