Ex-Militant Leader, Tompolo Runs Underground to Evade EFCC Arrest

 

A report by Today has shown that former Niger Delta militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemukpolo a.k.a Tompolo, has gone into hiding in the creeks of Bayelsa State for fear of arrest after being summoned by the Economic and Financial crimes Commission (EFCC).

According to Nigeria Standard, “There, he is being attended to by his coterie of militant boys, shielding him away from any eventual attack, which may possibly lead to his arrest.”

It would be recalled that the EFCC had earlier this week given Tompolo one week to report at its head office annex on Awolowo Road, Ikoyi, Lagos, or risk being declared wanted.

A letter from EFCC said the commission is investigating Tompolo for unclear dealings involving the sale of parcels of land worth about 13 billion naira to the Federal Government under the last administration.
