The leadership of the Niger-Delta Renaissance Network has described allegations of killings and kidnappings against Government Tompolo, the Chief Executive Officer of Tantita Security Company and Dennis Otuaro, the Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, as baseless.
The network in a statement signed by Gabriel Aniete, its spokesperson described the allegations as an effort to tarnish the image of Tompolo, Otuaro and several others who have demonstrated commitment to the development of the Niger Delta region.
Aniete said, “It is evident that the individual behind these accusations is being sponsored by oil bunkers and thieves in the Niger Delta who aim to undermine the integrity of Tompolo, Dennis, and others.
According to Aniete, Tompolo’s company has successfully provided security in Niger Delta and protected the nation’s oil assets since it was contracted by the government.
He said with the efforts of the company, Nigeria’s oil production has improved following constant apprehension of oil bunkers and thieves in the region.
He said, “Furthermore, under Dennis Otuaro’s leadership of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, the Niger Delta has witnessed a period of relative peace. The programme has played a significant role in training and retraining numerous ex-agitators, transforming them into responsible citizens who actively contribute to national development.

Their effective management of oil pipelines and the Presidential Amnesty Programme has drawn envy from forces who previously benefited from oil bunkering activities and fraudulent schemes within the amnesty programme,”Aniete said.
He further warned those involved in such character assassination to desist from such activities as Tompolo and Otuaro are dedicated to initiatives that aim to develop the region.
