Chairman of the Ughelli South United Forum, Ambassador Chief Godwin Okporoko, has applauded the leadership of Tantita Security Services Limited, including its Chairman, High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo, Vice Chairman Mr. Mathew Tonlagha, and Managing Director Chief Kestin Pondi, for their support towards the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.


Okporoko gave the commendation while acknowledging the efforts of the trio in promoting President Tinubu's second-term ambition through the establishment and funding of the Door-to-Door Campaign Organisation, an initiative aimed at mobilising grassroots support across communities.


According to him, the commitment demonstrated by Tompolo, Tonlagha and Pondi reflects their confidence in the leadership of President Tinubu and their desire to ensure continuity in governance and national development.


The Delta State Governor's Executive Assistant on Security Matters also praised the management of Tantita Security Services Limited for its contributions to the fight against crude oil theft and the protection of critical national assets in the Niger Delta.


He noted that the company's operations have significantly strengthened security within oil-producing communities while helping to improve crude oil production through the reduction of illegal bunkering and pipeline vandalism.


Okporoko further commended Chief Tare Pondi, General Manager, Operations and the entire management team of Tantita Security Services Limited for creating employment opportunities for thousands of youths across the Niger Delta, describing the initiative as a major contribution to peace, stability and economic empowerment in the region.


The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain said the leadership of Tantita has continued to impact lives positively by empowering young people and entrepreneurs with opportunities to become self-reliant and productive members of society.


He added that beyond security operations, the company has distinguished itself through extensive corporate social responsibility programmes that have benefited government institutions and host communities with the provision of critical infrastructure and other developmental projects.


Okporoko, who is also the President-General of the Owahwa Sub-Clan in OML 34, described the achievements of Tantita Security Services Limited as evidence of its commitment to the sustainable development of the Niger Delta.


He urged stakeholders and residents of the region to continue supporting and collaborating with Tompolo, Tonlagha and Pondi in their efforts to promote peace, economic growth and development for the overall benefit of the oil-rich Niger Delta.


According to him, sustained cooperation among community leaders, government institutions and private sector stakeholders remains essential to achieving lasting progress and prosperity in the region.
