Sources within the anti-graft agency confirmed to SaharaReporters on Wednesday that an invitation letter was delivered to Tompolo earlier this week.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has extended an invitation to former Niger Delta militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo.
The invitation is for questioning over allegations of naira abuse and financial misconduct.
Sources within the anti-graft agency confirmed to SaharaReporters on Wednesday that an invitation letter was delivered to Tompolo earlier this week. The EFCC, according to the sources, is now awaiting his response.
“An invitation letter has been sent to Tompolo,” one EFCC official said, adding that the move was procedural and not an arrest warrant. “We expect his cooperation.”
The anti-graft agency had earlier issued a statement stating that nobody is above the law while reacting to a video of the alleged naira abuse.
