NDDC: South-South Group Urges Umana To Ensure Board Inauguration

In a statement signed by the Convener of SSRG, Mr. Joseph Ambakederimo, while commending President Muhammadu Buhari for the appointment of Umana as the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, said that the appointment of Umana would bring fresh air and respite to the Niger Delta region.

There has been unending calls by stakeholders who have consistently demanded that the NDDC Act should be complied with in the governance of the Commission, noting that it is illegal to have contraptions of interim management committees/sole administrator to administer the NDDC and arbitrarily utilise the monthly allocations due to the Commission.

The SSRG expressed confidence that Umana would not disappoint given his background as an astute administrator. “Indeed, we are extremely excited for this deployment because we can attest to the capacity and competencies of Umana being an astute administrator coupled with the feat he has accomplished when he held sway at the helm of affairs at the Onne Oil and Gas Free Zone,” they said.
