NDDC: Senate Panel Recommends Dissolution Of IMC by fergie001: 12:53pm On Jul 23, 2020
The Senate ad hoc committee set up to unravel the alleged financial recklessness by the Interim Management Committee of the Niger Delta Development Commission has recommended its dissolution.

The panel also recommended that the NDDC should be returned to the Presidency for direct supervision.

It also said the monitoring and advisory bodies recognised by the Act which established the NDDC, should be inaugurated immediately.

It lamented the extra-budgetary spending by the IMC which it noted was affecting the people of the Niger Delta.

It noted that the Ministry of Niger Delta has no capacity to implement the forensic audit and therefore demanded that the Auditor General of the Federation should supervise the forensic audit for transparency and efficiency.

It also said the Auditor General should appoint internationally renowned audit experts to carry out the exercise.

It added that the N1.4bn spent on COVID -19 by the IMC should be refunded to the NDDC account.

The senators are currently debating the report of the panel, presented by the Chairman, Senator Olubunmi Adetunmbi.

The on-going FORENSIC AUDIT of NDDC from inception MUST continue and concluded. NASS can continue with its probe too but nothing stops the audit because it has gone far.

Why didn't Senate recommend external auditors all these years. The truth is if NASS committees had SINCERELY and PROFESSIONALLY done oversight functions, NDDC would have been discharging its fuctions as required. Senator Peter Nwaoboshi and co can't get away this time.

Niger Delta deserves better!

The committee did a nice job. From the report, there are fair and neutral enough. They recommend the dissolution of the IMC: NDDC be returned to the presidency for direct supervision. They did not say scap off the NDDC as the failed people of Niger Delta still deserve government intervention in their development and infrastructure. They did not say the minister should be sacked or the NDDC DG or that anybody should be arrested. This is understandable as a fresh auditing by a reputable foreign firm has been recommended. After the proper auditing, the law is expected to take its cause.
I don't know what the auditing outcome will be but Akpabio and Pondei and others found guilty should be sacked and jailed.
Also, Joy Nunieh should be given a presidential award of honour to encourage other Nigerians in the fight against corruption.

Just Yesterday the contractor that was awarded my street to construct drainage and the road moved to site.. As i am typing this the workers are on site working.. From my interaction with some of them after buying them drinks they made us realized all streets from Ogbogoro to St John's at Iwofe in Port Harcourt has been awarded 2 years ago but their Boss did not mobilize to site.
This is a company that got this contract through the local content act. Those stealing the money are from the ND and not the northerners.

I fully endorse the above recommendation. I also hope to be part of the team that will audit the commission.
