Fg Provides Heavy Security For Tompolo

THE Federal Government has drafted heavily-armed soldiers to provide security for the ex-militant leader, Government Ekpomukpolo, alias Tompolo.

Saturday Tribune gathered the deployment was in response to one of the demands of the former warlord before accepting the amnesty gesture.

Our sister publication the Nigerian Tribune, had reported, last Wednesday, the three conditions given by Tompolo, but the Federal Government gave a feeble denial the following day.

It was also learnt that the government further gave two new jeeps to facilitate the movement of the ex-warlord.

Saturday Tribune saw the ex-“General Officer Commanding” of the militants in the Niger Delta with the soldiers and the jeeps last Tuesday, when he was hosted to a reception by his father in Warri, Delta State.

At the end of the event, the former warlord entered one of the jeeps, accompanied by a soldier while the second was used as security escort with five soldiers.

Meanwhile, the ex-militant leader is yet to turn in his over 3000 foot soldiers he promised to hand over to the amnesty rehabilitation committee in Warri.

As of 3.00 p.m. on Friday when Saturday Tribune left the rehabilitation centre of the Federal Government, the militants that served under were yet to show up.

If he likes, let him surround himself with all Dirty Stinking Nigeria Soldiers. the best way out, is for him to change his name and relocate to Dirty Stinking, Disease Ridden Hausa/Fulani inhospitable desert land.

@wilywily

what is with you and dirty stinking?




lolllllll

I'm kinda confused. Did his father name him Government?

Maybe his father was a psychic, and knew he would fight against Government ever since he was born.

So, it sometimes pays in hell to be a criminal. Nigeria! I'm so fired, 

^^ i can't still understand why he's still alive    or isn't the government capable of making him have an "accident" for christ sake,this guy is a terrorist!! and he's going scot- free?? WTF??

Wrong ideaa, has he also been offered live & diplomatic immunity?, stupid

Misplaced priority.This guy needs re-orientation.

Tompolo is an idiot, he should known the government will use and dump him. I doubt if he can turn up his 3000 boys.

he doesnt have total control over the so called 3000 foot soldiers, he has been replaced by mend ,simple and short

well guys get arms n luk 4 sum hot spot that will affect them economy.destroy things,cause havoc,afer 3yrs the govt will grant u n your pple amnesty plus heavy cash immunity girls n protection.

na una sabi

Tompolo stopped being the leader of MEND the day he accepted the amnesty. he has no control over any 3000 militants. MENT is yet to accept amnesty

This is the bonus that comes with submitting to the amnesty, I guess.

Tompolo has reduced himself to a peanut. Someone that the FG was afraid of. Imagine Osama handing over himself to U.S. Tompolo has done the least thing I thought he would do.

I thought these Niger delta guys were serious when they started thios struggle. Was Tompolo afraid that FG would come and bomb his village? Did he not know that freedom demands a big sacrifice?

Nelson Mandela paid the sacrifice of staying in jail for 27 years before Southafrica could be free. Emeka Odumegwu Ojukwu paid his own sacrifice of standing in for the civil war when the federal forces came to fight his region. And to prove him right, the Nigeria that the federal forces fought for has gotten worse than she was and is now a failed state.

O Tompolo and the Niger deltans, I thought you people were serious when u started this struggle. If you fail this time nobody will ever take you people serious again and you will end up being the minorities in Nigeria, where you are the treasure base (Monkey de work Baboo dey chop).

how do you know SA is free?

4 what na ? It is so glaring that the government has got lots of money to waste , by the way what are they using to secure him ? All those toys they call guns when his got all the Karashimas in his house.
