A group, Niger Delta Transparency and Accountability Watchdog, has kicked against the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari to extend the tenure of Interim Management Committee of the Niger Delta Development Commission.
“The announcement that, even in the face of the evidence of gross abuse of office and fraudulent payments, the illegal IMC will stay in place for another eight months, represents a gross disdain, also, for the people of the Niger Delta who have made it plain that the IMC is an aberration that does not have the best interest of the people of the region. For proper understanding and appreciation of our position, the NDDC Act of 2000 has no provision for an interim management under whatever guise.
“The payments and disbursements made so far by the NDDC in the last three months is over N40bn and contracts have been awarded without detailed lot, quality and quantity specifications.
“These allegations are grievous indeed and any attempt to sweep them under the carpet will have grave implications for the anti-corruption campaign of President Buhari. Across the region, people are watching to see what the administration will do with these evidences of corruption under Akpabio and his illegal IMC with bated breath.
