The deputy governor of Delta State, Barrister Kingsley Burutu Otuaro is in trouble. The Ijaw born politician has been shouting on the rooftop that his political enemies are hell-bent on destroying his hard earned reputation.

He has been telling all those who care to listen that the people spreading the wicked rumour that the wanted ex-militant, Tompolo is hiding in his official quarters in Asaba to put a stop to it. The politician added that even those spreading falsehood that he is involved in the N13 billion fraud should look for another work to do than rumour mongering. Sources told us that it was Tompolo who installed the deputy governor.

Consequently, Justice Ibrahim Buba of a Federal High Court in Lagos has also asked the EFCC to seize Tompolo’s properties and sell them off if he fails to appear before the court within three months.
