Moves To Remove Joi Nunieh As NDDC Boss Thickens by holygist(op): 11:45pm On Feb 09, 2020
For the umpteenth time, forces against the continued stay of Dr. Joi Nuniuh as Acting Head of the Interim Committee at the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) are gathering and their plans does appear to be gaining momentum according to reports reaching the Holygist.

The latest onslaught, our source revealed is being spearheaded by the Minister of Niger Delta, Chief Godswill Akpabio who is allegedly infuriated by Nunieh's non-complaint stance to some of this financial demands.
"Nunieh and Akpabio had a spat over a week ago. Akpabio claims Joi Nunieh has become so heady and non-compliant to his demands, monetarily. He complained she no longer listens. While Joi Nunieh claims Akpabio has become too demanding and she can no longer comply for fear of landing into troubled waters," our source said.


Our findings revealed that an attempt by the Minister to reach common grounds with the NDDC boss after a spat a fortnight ago hit brick walls as she allegedly called his bluff and insisted her loyalty remains with President Muhammadu Buhari who considered her worthy of the appointment and not the coordinating Minister.

"Akpabio later invited Joi Nunieh to his office and she blatantly told him that he was not the one who gave her appointment but the President. This infuriated Akpabio who has vowed to remove Joi at all cost" our source said.
Another source, a ranking staff at the interventionist agency revealed that Akpabio has perfected plans to replace Joi with support from the senate who is also having a soured relationship with her. It is believed the former Akwa Ibom Governor favours another Ogoni aborigine for her replacement in order not to anger the Ogoni People.
