📰 Hon. David Osia Throws Support Behind Tompolo’s Door-to-Door Campaign for Tinubu’s Second Term

In a bold political statement that has sparked conversations across Edo State and the entire Niger Delta region, Hon. David Osia, former Senior Special Assistant (SSA) to the Edo State Governor, has publicly declared his support for the door-to-door campaign spearheaded by High Chief Government Ekpemupolo (popularly known as Tompolo) to rally support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s second term bid.

Speaking to Global Egberi Media International, Hon. Osia emphasised that the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) and the pipeline surveillance contract awarded to Tompolo have significantly boosted Nigeria’s security architecture and restored relative peace to the creeks.

“Tompolo’s effort is not just about politics; it is about the stability and security of our nation,” Hon. Osia said.
“The surveillance work he is doing in the Niger Delta has curbed oil theft, increased production, and supported the economy. We cannot afford to lose this progress. Supporting President Tinubu for a second term is supporting the continuity of this stability.”


🌍 Champion of Grassroots Development

Hon. David Osia is not just a politician; he is a grassroots mobiliser, rights activist, and development advocate. Hailing from Egbema and Olodiama Kingdoms in Edo State, he has been a consistent voice for his people, championing infrastructural development, youth empowerment, and environmental justice in the Niger Delta.

He described President Tinubu’s administration as one that has shown willingness to listen to the concerns of the Niger Delta and take decisive action, citing the renewed effort to engage ex-agitators and provide employment opportunities for young people in oil-bearing communities.


🛡️ The Case for Continuity

Hon. Osia’s argument is rooted in continuity:

  • Security Gains: He believes Tompolo’s involvement has drastically reduced illegal bunkering and vandalism of oil pipelines, saving Nigeria billions of naira in lost revenue.

  • Economic Stability: With increased oil production, he says Nigeria can fund more developmental projects across all regions.

  • Niger Delta Inclusion: He insists that the region’s participation in national politics is stronger under Tinubu’s leadership, and a second term would consolidate these gains.


Call to Action

In his message, Hon. Osia called on Niger Delta stakeholders, traditional rulers, youth leaders, and community representatives to rise above partisan divisions and unite for the progress of the region.

“This is not the time for political apathy,” he stressed.
“Egbema, Olodiama, and indeed the entire Niger Delta must speak with one voice. Our future depends on decisions we make today.”


📢 Conclusion

Hon. David Osia’s endorsement signals a new wave of political mobilisation from Edo State’s riverine communities. With his reputation as a grassroots politician and development advocate, his support could influence a large bloc of voters and further strengthen the bridge between the Niger Delta and the Federal Government.
