The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) has frozen the
accounts of two companies reportedly
owned by the ex-Niger Delta militant
leader, Chief Government Ekpompolo,
otherwise known as Tompolo. The companies, named Mieka Divers
Limited and Global West Vessels
Limited, are allegedly linked with
fraudulent activity in the Nigerian
Maritime Administration and Safety
Agency (NIMASA) under its ex-director general, Dr. Patrick Akpobolokemi, The
Nation reports. The head of the media unit of the EFCC,
Wilson Uwujaren, did not confirm any
details, but said that investigations are
ongoing as regards Akpobolokemi’s
tenure at NIMASA. He said: “I can’t confirm that to you
immediately, but what I know is that
the matter has been under
investigation.” The report revealed that a number of
private bank accounts, allegedly linked
to Akpobolokemi, had also been frozen
on the orders of the EFCC. A source said freezing the bank
accounts was aimed at checking the
illegal movement of large sums of
foreign and local currency across the
nation’s borders. The source, who spoke on condition of
anonymity, further stated that there
was ongoing security surveillance on a
number of private and corporate
accounts suspected of being linked to
slush funds.Government Of Change That Listens To
Us! Money said to be a part payment for
construction work on Maritime
University and NIMASA Techincal
College in Delta state, under a N30
billion contract agreed by the former
administration of the agency, is reportedly trapped at a Yenagoa,
Bayelsa state, branch of an old
generation bank. The source said the move by the EFCC
was to verify and keep a close watch
on the outflow of funds from the
accounts, with a view to ensuring that
such funds were used for the projects
they were meant for. The source said: “For instance, just one
individual got about N13 billion from a
single transaction with NIMASA. The
same individual also collected about
$57 million from similar deals from the
agency without proper documentation. “No serious administration would
attempt to sweep this type of thing
under the carpet. So there must be
proper explanations, bearing in mind
the security implications of movement
of such large sums within the system.”https://www.naij.com/541568-efcc-freezes-account-tomplos-companies.html

Dx re humongous sums we re talkin abt. I pray d EFCC carries out thorough investigatn before indicting anyone cos if not I pray we don't awake the sleeping giants. We are currently grappling wid d boko haram insurgency nd the biafra menace and if the militants feel dy re bin victimized dy may rear up their ugly head again wc may be catastrophic @ dx present times. I remember wen Militants submitted their arms NOBODY gave out more arms like Tompolo. D only person dt came vry close was Asari Dokubo. God bless Nigeria
