Idjerhe Monarch Urges National Honour for Tompolo Over Increased Oil Production


The Ovie of Idjerhe Kingdom, His Majesty, King Monday Arthur Whiskey, Udurhie I, has called on President Bola Tinubu to confer a National Honour on High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, a.k.a Tompolo, Chairman of Tantita Security Services Limited.

The monarch made the call on Sunday, November 24, 2024, while addressing newsmen at his palace in Idjerhe, Ethiope West Local Government Area of Delta State.

According to the monarch, Tompolo’s efforts have been instrumental in the attainment of 1.8 million barrel per day recently declared by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).

“Tompolo needs commendation. In fact, he needs a National award,” the monarch stated. “Nothing stops the President from inviting him to Abuja and conferring on him a National award, because he has done what Napoleon could not do.”

ā€œFirst and foremost, let me especially congratulate the staff and management of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited led by his leader, High Chief (Dr.) Government Ekpemupolo for the battle against oil theft.

ā€œFrom every available facts now, it is now very clear that only the section being handled by Tompolo and his Tantita group that are performing exceedingly well. So we can to say that Tompolo is not only protecting national installation, but that Tompolo has gone extra mile to take the highest risk that any Nigerian man will take.

ā€œThe situation today is that Tompolo is singlehandedly fighting the oil cabals, the oil cabal that were siphoning the country’s oil. And if we look at it very critically, there are three major things that Tompoloā€™s Tantita is achieving today.

ā€œOne, the firm is working very hard to increase oil and gas production output to the Nigerian government. Before this job was given to Tantita, Nigerian production was less than 1m barrels per day, and to bring on board extra 800,000 barrels on board, and still working hard to get it to 2 million barrels per day.

ā€œThere are serious agencies saddled with the responsibility of protecting these installations. What did they do? They rather conspired with the oil thieves, and they started doing it as a business.

ā€œSecondly, Tompolo is helping to restore our environment that has been criminally degraded from its natural state that today is supporting aquatic life and the growth of this environment, especially cleaner water.

ā€œIf you are used to this area before Tantita was given this job, you barely can see the water content, because everything is covered in black oil.

ā€œBut today, that the aquatic lives are returning to their natural habitat is as a result of the hard work of an individual. An individual took it upon himself. Other people were given the same job. What have they done?

ā€œThirdly, this Tantita Security Project is creating very serious employment opportunities to youths in the entire Niger Delta area and is exposing our youth to the deployment of high tech facilities, because they are not using manual technology.

ā€œI want to seriously appeal to the federal government to increase and expand this project. Because if you look critically, it is only the areas where Tantita is working that you have this very noble achievement.

ā€œSo there is no reason why I should not advocate for the expansion of the project so that we can get more able-bodied youth from the streets, they need to work. The federal government should, as a matter of urgency, begin to fund Tantita very regularly, because, you know, an idle mind is the devil’s workshop.

ā€œNow that Tompolo has used his native sagacity to bring together the most dreaded youths in the region to be part of this program, there is no reason why salaries should not be regular.

ā€œIncrease the workforce, regularize the workersā€™ salaries, the security contract has enhanced oil production and sustained environmental protection of the Niger Delta people, Tompolo deserve a national award for the feat he has achieved so far.
