Officially celebrating a rebel leader

Ctorch:
You have Contributed Greatly to Delta Development Okowa Hails Tompolo at 50.

Okowa congratulates Tompolo at 50
Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta has congratulated Niger Delta activist and ex-militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemupolo as he clocks 50 years.

Okowa, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Olisa Ifeajika, on Monday in Asaba, said that Ekpemupolo popularly known as Tompolo, was an illustrious son of Niger Delta, who had contributed immensely to the peace and development of the region.

He said that Ekpemupolo's crave for the development of Niger Delta compelled him to embrace the Presidential Amnesty offered by the Federal Government to armed agitators in the region in 2009, thereby ending the near-intractabl
e militancy in the area.

He remarked that ‘’Tompolo’’ contributed hugely to the restoration and sustenance of peace in Delta, recalling that his swift intervention in one of those ``tough times’’ helped to nip in the bud, a dangerously brewing crisis in the state and the region.

The governor urged him to continue to do good, as it was fulfilling and rewarding to be benevolent, ``especially now that you have attained the golden age’’.

"On behalf of my family, the government and people of Delta, I felicitate with an illustrious son of the Niger Delta, High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo on the occasion of his 50th birth anniversary.

"Tompolo, as he is fondly called, is an embodiment of peace and has contributed greatly to the peace and development of the oil rich Niger Delta, and has continued to partner governments in the maintenance of peace in the region. We are grateful to him for his support.

"As he celebrates his golden jubilee, it is my prayer and that of the people of Delta that God will continue to bless him with good health and wisdom to continue in his services to humanity," he stated.


Please wish our Tompolo Happy Birthday.

Officially celebrating a rebel leader

Yes we will celebrate him � He is better than your sale out leaders that will kill innocent protesters in a tool gate mumu!

Congratulations! Is he from Delta State? secondly Government is that his real name

Just imagine the governor of Lagos state paying for advert in a national daily to celebrate the birthday of MC Oluomo! The entire social media will be on fire. The governor of a SS PDP state used state resources to celebrate a militant and there is no outcry. The hypocrisy on this street stinks badly.

In all this, I pity the foolish Yorubas who always join enemies to tear down their own. While other ethnic groups keep promoting their people irrespective of their flaws, we always join them to destroy our own out of foolishness. Smh!

Fahdiga:
Shut up. Tompolo is a hero to his people. what are you to your people?

Thank you
Let him go to Kano and see people selling and buying stickers of Abacha.

A people without heroes are doomed.

The same governor that claimed nobody died at the lekki tool gate, please dont compare okowa with your traitor likes that will kill their own for power at any cost. Meanwhile i wont be surprised if your leaders hand over sunday igboho for benefits.

Owologbo:

Since when has fighting for your right becomes thuggish?
We all can not be shouting up and down without action.

You too much! I wish sey I fit just buy one bottle of HERO right now.

Fahdiga:
Shut up. Tompolo is a hero to his people. what are you to your people?

Highly ungrateful to Buhari's clemency.

Buhari is ungrateful

➡The true defenders of the
Niger Delta.

➡The lazy parasitic north will
no like such a Delta patriot who
fought to make his people partake
in the God given wealth of their
own land.

➡To the uneducated mind of the
North, he is not different from
Shekau of Boko haram.✔✔

You hit the nail

Visit any psychiatric hospital and get your cure..



I don't waste time on rubbish.

Although the way the other man sound is too harsh. Sometimes we need not say every person you saw stealing actually stole. Let us take the case of the Yoruba warlord Igboho for example, Mr Igboho was not ok or satisfy with the way Fulani is killing her mothers so he stood up with a voice for his people and put a stop to those killing her mothers. Now some will say he is fighting for his pocket others will say he is fighting for his region.
That's how it is, For me, Mr Tompolo fought a good fight for his people and his region. Fighting for what's yours to me is a good fight whether you lose or gain.
Try your best to visit a place called KOKORI in Delta State, a place that sometimes has the best crude oil in Nigeria. You won't believe your eyes.
If tomorrow someone rise up from that area to fight for what belongs to him and his people what do you call such a person.

Tompolo is just a terrorist.

What is the diference between Tompolo, Bohoharam or bandits

tamdun:
Wetin tompolo contribute to delta development?

Oga....Tompolo don build more schools than the federal government in his town, he has given students scholarships to canada, and the United States for masters and PhDs, helped more families get out of poverty, and even built roads. If you doubt this, go to his town and arrest him let's see.

If Niger Deltans can celebrate TOMPOLO then they should stop condemning those celebrating Sunday IGBOHO, M.C OLUOMO etc.

Keep deceiving and lying to yourself..
Your Tompolo brought Kidnapings and banditry to Nigeria.
Nigerians never knew banditry nor Kidnapings until your evil Tompolo brought his evil ways to Nigeria.
Your Tompolo is worse than bandits and BH combined.

Igboho should never be mentioned in the same sentence with MC Oluomo!

One fights for his people and the other fights for the politicians who steals from his people.

But

How can someone's name be "Government".
