President Buhari Revokes Former Niger Delta Militant Leader Tompolo's Coastal Protection Contract

                    

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has ordered the immediate termination of the coastal and pipeline protection contract awarded to former Niger Delta militant leader Government Ekpomupolo alias Tompolo by President Goodluck Jonathan. In 2011, President Jonathan awarded a contract to provide security along Nigeria's maritime borders to Global West Vessel Specialists Nigeria, a company owned by Tompolo. Seen as a political gesture, President Buhari has instructed the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (Nimasa) to discontinue payments for the provision of platforms for security.  

With the revocation of the contract, money paid to the private firm will now be channelled to the Nigerian Navy and marine police to secure the nation’s waterways. According to a source at the Federal Ministry of Transport, the $103m (N21bn) maritime security contract was approved by former President Jonathan and awarded by Nimasa in 2011, shortly after Patrick Akpobolokemi, was appointed to head the agency.
