The Chairman of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited, Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, has refuted reports circulating online that he issued a 21-day ultimatum to the Federal Government demanding the release of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.
In a statement signed by his media consultant, Paul Bebenimibo, Tompolo described the viral publication as false, misleading, and the work of those seeking to malign his reputation.
“We wish to state categorically that High Chief Ekpemupolo did not author, approve, or have any connection with the said publication. It is purely the handiwork of detractors who are uncomfortable with his strong stance against illegal crude oil operations in the Niger Delta. These individuals have failed and will continue to fail, as Tompolo remains resolute in his mission to end oil theft and pipeline vandalism,” the statement read.
Reaffirming his loyalty to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Tompolo, through his spokesperson, declared his full support for the administration’s Renewed Hope Agenda and expressed confidence in the President’s leadership, pledging to continue backing him, including for a second term.
The statement called on the Federal Government and members of the public to disregard the fake report, emphasizing that it does not reflect Tompolo’s views or any official communication from his office.
