NIMASA Collects 20 Vessels From Ex-Militant Tompolo

The Nigerian Maritime
Administration and Safety
Agency (NIMASA) has taken
back 20 vessels belonging to
the agency, in the custody of
Government Ekpemupolo,
also known as Tompolo.
Tompolo bought the vessels
under a private-public
partnership agreement with
NIMASA.
Industry watchers say
NIMASA’s move is linked
with Tompolo indictment in
various fraud investigations
by the Economic and
Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC).
Asource who spoke to Daily
Trust about the
development, said “These
ships are mounted with guns
and those in charge are
being investigated. The
management thought it wise
to take over the ships so that
they will not be used to
cause any breach of security
in the Niger Delta region.
“The ships were purchased
by Global West under a
Purchase Operate and
Transfer agreement it had
with NIMASA. Those who
man the vessels are naval
personnel who are
authorized by the
constitution to police the
waterways.
