Sponsors of New Nigeri-Delta Militant Group Exposed

Ex Militant Leader, Government Ekpemupolo, aka Tompolo, has stated that two prominent Itsekiri and Ijaw activists, both stalwarts of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Delta state are probably behind the Niger Delta Avengers.

According to him, the activists “are only looking for attention from the government, so they use the happenings to seek relevance from the government, they may be behind these guys."

He spoke in a statement through his Media Adviser and Consultant, Mr. Paul Bebenimibo.

“If not for his present issues with the Federal Government, he (Tompolo) would have gone after them and exposed them because they seem to make things difficult for him, as the government is pointing fingers at him, but he cannot do anything in his present situation,” Bebenimibo said.

He also stated that he will not apologize to the Niger Delta Avengers.

The Niger Delta Avengers had, in a statement by its spokesperson, Col. Mudoch Agbinibo, May 3, given Tompolo a 3-day ultimatum to apologize to him.
