In the letter dated Friday, July 22, Tompolo, accused President Muhammadu Buhari of unfair treatment and alleged molestation of his 84 years old father, Chief Thompson Ekpemupolo.
He claimed that his octogenarian father, lost a lower limb to amputation, following his encounter with troops of the Federal Government, who invaded Kurutie, Warri South-West Local Government Area in May.
The Letter Reads: “As it stands now, you are not abreast with things happening in this part of the country, perhaps you are only abreast with crude oil exploration activities in the Niger Delta region.Tompolo, who extensively explained his case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, as well as the N13 billion NIMASA University land acquisition debacle, urged the President to deploy his trusted aides to the area to ascertain the true state of affairs.
“I do not need to remind Your Excellency that, the primary duty of any government, is to seek after the welfare and security of the citizenry,” he said.
On his father’s travails, he added, “The military went to Kurutie Town in search of my 84-year-old father and brutalised him. We managed to rescue him to Warri and hospitalised him.
“Sadly, one of his lower limbs was amputated two weeks ago. From the doctor’s report, it will be a miracle if he survives this incident. Is this 84 years old man also a member of the Niger Delta Avengers, that he was brutalised to the point of death?
“Will Your Excellency accept this in good faith, if this was done to your father or someone of this age in your family? I have not heard of anyone that was treated like this, even in the volatile North Eastern part of the country,” he added.
“Your Excellency Sir, I have been wondering since the beginning of my travails at your instance, and I wish to ask whether, this part of the fight against corruption in Nigeria is? Or was it because I supported my kinsman, former President, Goodluck Jonathan, in the 2015 general elections? I thought everyone in Nigeria has the liberty to support whoever he or she deemed fit in an election.The leader of the defunct Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, Government Ekpemupolo, Tompolo, has sent a detailed personal letter to the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“And as Dr Jonathan bravely accepted the outcome of the election, which brought you in as President of Nigeria today, I thought you will heal wounds as the father of the Nation. And it was on this premise that I visited you, immediately after your swear-in ceremony to pledge my loyalty and readiness to work with your administration.
“I am yet to be told the reason for all these shenanigans exhibited by your security agencies and party members.
“The latest victims of this unwarranted, misdirected and wicked act are, Honourable Simeon Bebenimibo, a member of the Delta State Waterway and Land Security Committee and a driver of one of my aides, Mr Ebipade Kari, who was on an errand with a little baby.
“The baby was thrown away from the vehicle, as the driver was beaten to pulp by your men, as he was asked the whereabouts of his boss.
“That was not all, the military men stormed the house of one of my younger brothers, and harassed his pregnant wife with guns pointed at her. This has led to complications, because of the closeness to her full time of delivery”.
