THE EFCC has frozen a bank account belonging to a wanted ex-militant, Government Ekemupolo, who is popularly known as Tompolo.


The anti-graft agency found N3bn in the account and had frozen it pending outcome of court processes.


An operative of the anti-graft agency, who spoke to Punch on condition of anonymity, said: "During investigations into the fraud at NIMASA (Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency), we traced about N3bn to a bank account, which is owned by Tompolo.


“The account has since been frozen in accordance with Section 34 (1) of the EFCC Act 2004 which empowers the commission to freeze any account suspected of being used for financial crimes.”


Tompolo, who has been on the run since February, was arraigned in absentia with the ex-DG of NIMASA, Mr. Patrick Akpobolokemi, and the latter’s six brothers on April 18, 2016, for N47.7bn fraud.

Hmmm

Hmm. Buhari's efcc and political witch hunting abi na wizard catapulting. Anyway, corruption should not be celebrated else we won't achieve any meaningful result in govt administration

Okay I have heard

Heartless and greedy miscreants turned NigerDelta struggle to a money making venture to the detriment of social liberation, economic improvement and infrastructural decay the struggle aimed to achieve. Asari said he was fighting for Nigerdeltans only for him to collect his own share and travelled to a neighbouring country to establish a university, all his investments are far away from the South, this same unfortunate situation has other warlords as its unfortunate candidates. Where is the supposed liberation they said they were clamouring for? Now, the new tools of political instability hiding under the facade of ND struggle are again negotiating their own share. I pray ND would not self-destruct

Trouble dey sleep,nyanga go wake am.

3 Billion Naira?!









God Punish Education..

Who know where I fit buy Gun and Dynamite?


Militancy is the Way forward for me..

true

EFCC everywhere. Nice one

Let the music play on. This whopping amount could have prevented many of the road mishaps along Enugu - Onitsha dilapidated road or the East-West road or even Otueke road or even 2nd niger bridge. Please, after the regge, play the blues too

3bn what? Why won't the Niger Delta Avengers be as serious as hell? Militancy pays far more than politics- but only in Nigeria.

zzz

wow

hmm, this ANTI CORRUPTION CRUSADE ehn is getting interesting.....

hope there won't be more bombing

Witch hunting or not .... I put it to you that 3Billion in a single account of a known militant is enough to have it frozen. I mean .....Common!!!!!

3 billion for what? what service did he render to Nimasa. orisi

Oya check Ty Danjuma account too. Make Tompolo catch Magut

We Igbos support Tompolo and the Niger Delta
Tompolo is greater than all Igbo men both dead and alive

Tompolo is greater Ojukwu

Tompolo is greater than Chinua Achebe

Tompolo is greater Nnamdi Azikiwe.

We Igbos support Tompolo. The Niger Delta Oil belong to we Igbos. Na our oyel

Freedom fighter with 3bn in 1 of his accounts,while thousands of Niger deltans starves. Really?

Tomolo has 3 Billion in one of his accounts and some of the dumb thugs supporting him here on Nairaland are rushing to collect Buhari's 5K for unemployed graduates.

Just Negodu!

Now I know what the Avengers re also after.................

If Tpolo can rake in this amount, it's no wonder (in their region) everybody wants to be a militant.

Tompolo will not like this. I see hunger smiling at Tompolo from a distance.

Segadem:

Hmmmm,]Government freeze Government money, no problem

Hahahah funny
