The Niger Delta Development Commission has accused Senator Peter Nwaoboshi, of looting N3.6bn from the commission and called on the senator to step down as Chairman of the Senate Committee on NDDC.
The ex-militants, who met in Port Harcourt under the auspices of the 21st Century Youths of Niger Delta and Agitators with Conscience said the committee chairmen lacked the locus standi to sit on any probe panel involving the commission. Others are Millstone Allied Builders Ltd., Nelpat Nigeria Company, Agh-Rown Ventures, Edendoma Stars International and Antlers Construction and Allied Works Ltd.
“The inventory records show that these items were supplied and received on Senator Nwaoboshi’s business premises and warehouse. Meanwhile, the contracts were awarded to him. The Leader of CYNDAC, Izon Ebi, who spoke after the meeting, said the chairmen with all allegations of corrupt practices against them had become interested parties in the case and could not act as judge and jury in the interest of natural justice.He said: “We, therefore, use this medium to warn that the so-called inquisition in the name of probe by the lawmakers should not in any way truncate the ongoing forensic audit in the NDDC instituted by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
