By Uche Alvin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The leadership of the PBAT Door To Door Movement has strongly condemned what it described as false and malicious claim in some publications that the Grand Patron of the group, High Chief Government Ekpemupolo alias Tompolo, issued a 21-day ultimatum to the Federal Government to release Nnamdi Kanu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This claim is entirely baseless and the handiwork of desperate propagandists, fake news merchants, fifth columnists, and agents of disunity”, the National Coordinator of the group, Sunday Asuku, said in a statement on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asuku said that the fake news merchants’ plot to create tensions and instigate the Federal Government against Tompolo had fallen like a pack of cards in the face of his exemplary commitment to national peace and development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He pointed out that it had become clear to discerning people that those behind the 21-day ultimatum claim had been greatly unsettled by Tompolo’s unalloyed support to President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PBAT Door To Door Movement urged security agencies to investigate and bring to book those behind the fake news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asuku said, “These elements are bent on creating tension and undermining the patriotic efforts of a man who has remained an icon of peace, unity, national development, socio-economic and political diversity, regardless of tribal, religion, zonal or political affiliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It is evident that Chief Tompolo\u2019s unwavering support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu\u2019s Renewed Hope Agenda has unsettled certain groups uncomfortable with his growing influence in advancing national stability and economic progress. However, their attempt to malign his image through fabricated narratives will fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For the avoidance of doubt, at no time did Chief Tompolo issue any statement or directive regarding the legal proceedings involving Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. The matter is before a competent court of law, and any attempt to interfere with due process would be both unpatriotic and unlawful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The PBAT Door To Door Movement wishes to emphasize that issues bordering on national unity and security must be treated with utmost responsibility and sensitivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The reckless use of social media to circulate divisive propaganda not only undermines the integrity of public discourse but also poses a serious threat to Nigeria\u2019s collective peace and development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe therefore call on opinion leaders, influencers, and citizens alike to exercise restraint, promote factual reporting, and support the government\u2019s ongoing efforts to build a stable and inclusive nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Chief Tompolo has consistently demonstrated commitment to the peace and stability of Nigeria, particularly in the Niger Delta region where his efforts have helped sustain the nation\u2019s economic lifeline. As a patriot and peace advocate, his focus remains on consolidating the gains of the Renewed Hope Agenda and strengthening the bond of unity among Nigerians irrespective of ethnic or religious differences, which is obviously not going down well with the rebels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Chief Tompolo’s promotion of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Renewed Hope Agenda and his recent trend has made the enemies of Nigeria uncomfortable, hence, the propaganda and malicious publications, aimed at denting his harmonious relationship with the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We therefore call on the Department of State Services (DSS) and other relevant security agencies to thoroughly investigate and bring to book those behind this reckless act. The deliberate spread of misinformation poses a grave threat to Nigeria\u2019s unity and security, and such actions must not be allowed to go unpunished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The PBAT Door To Door Movement remains steadfast in its commitment to promoting peace, good governance, and national cohesion through truthful communication and civic engagement. We urge Nigerians to disregard the false report and always verify information before sharing it online.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
