The group lauded Tompolo's unwavering commitment to peace, security, and development in the Niger Delta region, particularly through his leadership of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited.​

Hon  Chief Augustine Ogedegbe the GOC,  of the Urhobo Ex-Militant Group, praised Tompolo's efforts in combating oil theft and safeguarding national assets. "Tompolo's dedication has significantly contributed to the stability and economic growth of our region. His birthday is not just a personal milestone but a celebration of his enduring legacy in the Niger Delta," Agi stated.​

The group also commended Dr. Dennis Otuaro, Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), for his transformative leadership.
