Court Grants EFCC’s Request To Seize Tompolo’s Properties

A Federal High Court in Lagos on Friday assented to a request by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to seize all but one of the assets belonging to the former General Officer Commanding, GOC, of the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta, MEND, Chief Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo.

The presiding judge, Justice Ibrahim Buba gave this order after Tompolo again failed to appear in court to honour a summon on an alleged fraudulent land contract for the construction of the Nigerian Maritime University.
