With the deadline given by a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos to the nation’s security agencies to produce the former ex-militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo looming there are clear indications that his whereabouts are unknown.

This is as a result of his Ijaw relatives’ unreadiness to give up the former militant leader, who the people of Gbaramatu-Ijaw in Warri South-West Local Government Area, Delta State, regard in very high esteem.

A royal father, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said: “No Gbaramatu man will reveal the hideout of Tompolo to any security man even if he knows, unless that person does not have a true Ijaw blood flowing in him.

From what I can see, the whole thing is about business transaction, the Federal Government should settle the matter and let peace reign.”
