So much controversy happening from the purchase of the War boat by tompolo, he has allegedly come out to clear the air wave concerning the issue, Former leader of the defunct Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta(MEND) High Chief Government Ekpemupolo has raised the alarm that politicians are out to tarnish his image as the 2015 election approaches even though he is not a politician.
The former Niger Delta militant, otherwise known as Tompolo was reacting to media reports that he had acquired some gunboats from the Norwegian government with the assistance of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) ostensibly for the policing of the nation’s waterways.
Tompolo who spoke through his spokesman, Comrade Paul Bebenimibo not only exonerated himself but insisted that the latest onsalught was masterminded by some Niger Delta ethnic chauvinists.
“I am not surprised that this blackmail is coming at this crucial time that Nigeria is facing serious security challenges even as the most decisive moment for the nation, which is the 2015 election closes in.
“For one, the initial reaction was to just ignore this cheap blackmail and forge ahead with personal commitments but the propensity with which these lies are daily peddled requires that a bit of clarifications is given to the Nigerian public.
Clearly, the intent of those behind the malicious media report is to weigh me down,paint me as someone with the desire to wage war against the Nigerian state by painting a picture of an arms build-up in the Niger Delta as 2015 approaches.
