A former Niger Delta militant leader,
Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo, has
urged the Lagos Division of the Court of Appeal
to void the warrant for arrest issued against
him on January 14 and February 8 by Justice
Ibrahim Buba of a Federal High Court in Lagos.
Justice Buba issued the warrant for Tompolo’s
arrest for his failure to honour a summons
issued on him in respect of a 40-count of an
alleged N45.9bn fraud levelled against him and
nine others.
The judge had in a ruling on February 8
dismissed an application by Tompolo’s lawyers,
Mr. Tayo Oyetibo (SAN), and Ebun-Olu
Adegboruwa, seeking to vacate the arrest
warrant on the claim that Tompolo was not
properly served with the summons.
Following Tompolo’s continued absence in court,
Justice Buba, last week Friday ordered the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to
seize some assets belonging to Tompolo
pending when he would appear in court to
answer the charges.
In a statement on Sunday, Adegboruwa,
however, said Oyetibo’s and his (Adegboruwa)
law firms had since last Thursday filed an
appeal against the arrest warrant issued on
Tompolo by Justice Buba.
In their 10 grounds of appeal, Oyetibo and
Adegboruwa contended that Justice Buba erred
in law when he “refused to set aside the
warrant of arrest issued against him (Tompolo),
when there was no evidence to show that he
had been notified of the summons and the
criminal charge pending against him, before the
Court.”

The best thing for Tompolo and his legal vandals is for him to submit himself to the law of the land instead of this hide and seek games.
