The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has said that former Niger Delta militant leader, Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, will be questioned over alleged naira abuse.
In a post on its official X (formerly Twitter) handle on Monday, the anti-graft agency reiterated that no one is above the law.
The controversy stems from a viral video shared on X.com on Sunday by user Harrison A, who tweets as #harreceipts. The caption read, “EFCC, see Tompolo and the Naira o.”
The video, reportedly taken during Tompolo’s 54th birthday celebration in April, shows him dancing while a man sprays ₦1,000 notes in front of him.
The footage triggered a wave of criticism and calls for action on social media, with users accusing the EFCC of selective enforcement.
