The renewed claims by Niger Delta Minister Chief Godswill Akpabio and the IMC that 6 members out of the 469 members of the National Assembly are contractors to the Commission should not distract Nigerians from the evidence of large scale looting, fraud and mismanagement at the NDDC in the last few months.
The Senate had on Thursday, July 23, accepted its Adhoc Committee’s recommendations that the IMC be disbanded and made to refund the sum of N4.
We have maintained that Akpabio, Ojougboh and the IMC have no excuse to steal the resources of the Niger Delta people or seek to dodge scrutiny over their performance in office. They are at liberty to report the concerned lawmakers to the police, the EFCC and the ICPC for investigation and prosecution, as necessary, rather than seek to use them as bargaining chips.
