Tompolo surrenders as amnesty ends

Former militant leader, Government Ekumokpolo (also known as Tompolo) arrived in Warri from Abuja on Sunday afternoon to a tumultuous reception mounted by Ijaw cultural groups, security officials and stern looking militants in headbands.

Mr. Ekumokpolo, who was in Abuja on Saturday for a meeting with the Nigerian President, Umaru Yar’Adua, was the last major militant leader in the Niger Delta to accept the government’s amnesty offer. He had earlier held out by asking that the programme be extended to allow him meet with his gang and get them to sign to the plan.

The former militant leader arrived in a presidential jet at the Osubi airstrip, Warri, with Defence Minister, Godwin Abbe, and Special Adviser to the President on the Niger Delta, Timi Alaibe, in tow.

“Today is the greatest day for Nigeria,” Tompolo said as he stepped out to meet his people. “I and my people will accept the amnesty and we will work with Mr. President to achieve the dreams of this country.”

The IMF on Saturday in Istanbul said the reforms by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to correct the "lax lending standards'' in Nigerian banks would restore confidence in the banking sector.

The IMF's Director of African Department, Antoinette Sayeh, made the fund's position known on the CBN's reforms at the ongoing 2009 IMF/World Bank Annual Meetings.

Mr. Sayeh, a former Minister of Finance in Liberia, said the IMF had already extended technical support to the CBN to ensure that it succeeds in its regulatory supervision.
