Today marks a momentous occasion, the birthday of a legend who has navigated the intricate waters of the Niger Delta, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of politics, power, and transformation. High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, affectionately known as Tompolo, is a man of extraordinary dimensions. Born into the mortal realm in the traditional Gbaramatu Kingdom of Okerenkoko, Delta State, he has traversed a path that blends mystique with statesmanship.
Tompolo’s life is a testament to his multifaceted personality – a human with a deep affinity for the spiritual universe, a revered cultural icon, and a spiritual leader. As the chief priest of many deities, which embody truth, fairness, and equity, he has been a guiding force in the Ijaw nation. His journey from a young militant fighting for the emancipation of Ijaw nation and the Niger Delta to a respected leader and businessman is nothing short of remarkable.
As a nationalist and patriot, Tompolo’s love for his country and people knows no bounds. His leadership has been marked by a commitment to justice, peace, and the welfare of his people. While patriotism is about loving one’s country, nationalism can sometimes take on a more complex form, emphasising the superiority of one’s nation. However, in Tompolo’s case, his actions have shown that being a nationalist can also mean working tirelessly for the betterment of one’s community ¹.
On this special day, we celebrate not just Tompolo’s life but also his vision for the Ijaw nation. May God Almighty grant him long life, good health, and boundless prosperity. May his properties, businesses, and endeavours continue to flourish under divine protection. As he continues to lead and inspire, may his legacy be a beacon of hope and progress for generations to come.
As we reflect on Tompolo’s remarkable journey, we are reminded of the power of dedication and service. His story serves as a testament to the impact one person can have on their community and beyond. Here’s to many more years of wisdom, leadership, and inspiration from a true legend of our time.
