Tompolo advocated for proper succession thus sidelining himself and many others who thought he could vary the succession procedure Tompolo consulted with the Egbesu Gbarran and knew exactly who the king should be and ordered a search party to go look for him wherever he was then. Tompolo championed this cause of fairness and in the process instilled responsibility and order into the cultural practices of the Gbaramatu people. He has been involved in offering many support services to Gbaramatu kingship institutions in the more than many years that followed the ascension of the present king.
