The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has summoned a former militant leader in the Niger Delta, Government Ekpemupolo alias Tompolo, over an allegation of fraud relating to the land acquired for the establishment of the Maritime University in Okerenkoko of Delta State.
EFCC’s letter of invitation asked Ekpemupolo to appear at the Lagos office of the anti-graft agency on December 17.
The letter dated December 9, 2015 was signed by Head of Operations of the Lagos office of the commission, Mr. Iliyasu Kwarbai.
The letter with reference number, CR:3000/EFCC/lS/CTGI/TF/STF/VOl.8/174 was titled, ‘Investigation Activities: Letter of Invitation.’
