A former governor of Delta State, Chief James Ibori, has described as ridiculous the allegation which linked him to projects executed by the Niger Delta Development Commission.
The Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, had in a document attached to the letter he submitted to the Speaker, House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, on July 23, linked some emergency roads’ repair projects to Ibori.
“He has decided to make this clarification for the records because friends and associates inundated him with phone calls this morning. The statement read, “He has never been accused of being a government contractor, let alone a failed one hence he did not want to dignify the allegation with a response because it is ridiculous.
