Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa has come out to hail Niger Delta activist and ex-militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemupolo as he clocks 50 years.

Okowa recently revealed this via a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Olisa Ifeajika in Asaba, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, Tompolo is an illustrious son of Niger Delta who has contributed immensely to the peace and development of the region.

He added that Tompolo’s crave for the development of Niger Delta actually forced him to embrace the Presidential Amnesty offered by the Federal Government to armed agitators in the region in 2009, thereby ending the near-intractable militancy in the area.

His words, “Tompolo’’ contributed hugely to the restoration and sustenance of peace in Delta, recalling that his swift intervention in one of those “tough times’’ helped to nip in the bud, a dangerously brewing crisis in the state and the region.”

“On behalf of my family, the government, and people of Delta, I felicitate with an illustrious son of the Niger Delta, High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo on the occasion of his 50th birth anniversary.”

“Tompolo, as he is fondly called, is an embodiment of peace and has contributed greatly to the peace and development of the oil-rich Niger Delta, and has continued to partner governments in the maintenance of peace in the region. We are grateful to him for his support.”

“As he celebrates his golden jubilee, it is my prayer and that of the people of Delta that God will continue to bless him with good health and wisdom to continue in his services to humanity.”
