The minister says the suspension did not follow 'due process'.
Suleiman Adamu, Minister of Water Resources [PHOTO: Facebook page of the Ministry of Water Resources]The Minister of Water Resources, Suleiman Adamu, has asked the public to disregard the recent “suspension” of the managing director of the Cross River Basin Development Authority by the board of the agency.
The committee, set up by the board in September 2019, said in its report that there were “various breaches” in the agency and that Mr Nkposong “arrogated to himself the status of a sole administrator regardless of the extant provisions of the Establishment Act of the Authority”. Mr Nkposong, however, told PREMIUM TIMES he did not receive any query or suspension letter from the board. He also said he was not aware of the ad-hoc committee set up by the board.“Cross River Basin Development Authority is under the Federal Ministry of Water Resources, and that is where we take directives from,” he added.
