'They' want to kill me - Tompolo writes Buhari

Former Niger Delta warlord, Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo, has alleged that there are plans by defectors from PDP in Delta and Bayelsa states to kill him.

According to Tribune, Tompolo made the allegation in a letter he wroteto President Buhari. ‎In the letter, Tompolo reportedly said the PDP defectors, who are now members of the APC, from Warri South West Local Government Area of the state had resolved to link him to the renewed vandalism of oil installations in the state.

He alleged that the APC new comers were planning against him in connivance with a lawyer attached to the EFCC who is also a member of the APC. He also questioned the moral rights of the EFCC counsel handling the alleged N13 billion land fraud in which he is involved in.

According to him, the EFCC lawyer who is after him was doing so because he (Tompolo) rejected an offer to buy choice properties from him.

"The crux of this letter is to let you know that they are dubious, mischievous, desperate, pretentious, manipulative and corrupt, therefore they do not share the same vision and mission with you as well as do not believe in good governance," he stated.
