The Niger Delta Development Commission has faulted reports making the rounds of a plan to delay the decision of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.) to constitute a substantive board for the interventionist agency.

A group, the Niger Delta Alliance for Economic Survival, had reportedly alleged that some staff members and contractors of the NDDC were in collusion with some members of the National Assembly to frustrate the announcement of the new board.

Abosede also dismissed claims by the group that the acting Managing Director of the NDDC, Emmanuel Audu-Ohwavboru, entered into an agreement with some federal legislatures, specifically the Senate, to continue to share the agency’s funds. “The group, led by one Mr Tubonemi Chibisi, in one breath, accused the Minister of the Niger Delta Affairs, of complicity in the plan to sabotage the good intentions of the Federal Government. In another breath, it expressed deep respect for the minister and management of the NDDC.
