Speaking with The Cable, Wilson Uwujaren, spokesman of the commission said they would use all lawful means to bring in the former militant leader for questioning.
He said: “The commission will take all lawful measures to ensure that he answers the invitation.”
In November, a similar invitation was extended to the ex-militant by the head of operations at the EFCC, Iliasu Kwabai, but he failed to appear and no correspondence was received from him.
Sources close to Tompolo disclosed that he would shun the invitation from EFCC.
However, Uwujaren did not disclose if the commission would declare him wanted if he fails to appear for questioning.
