NDDC: Pondei reveals those scared of probe
The Interim Management Committee of the Niger Delta Development Commission says those who got “emergency contracts” are scared of the ongoing forensic audit.
Members are Senators Jika Dauda Haliru ; Mohammed Tanko Almakura ; Abdulfatai Buhari ; Chukwuka Utazi ; Ibrahim Hadeija ; and Biobarakuma Wangaha . In a statement on Monday, Edgar Ebigoni, spokesman to Acting MD, Kemebradikumo Pondei, recalled that Pondei denied the allegations and challenged anyone to come forward with evidence.“It is therefore surprising and disappointing the Senate Committee can be attributed with unproven allegations as their final report,” he said.
“Whatever made the Senate Ad-Hoc sit in Abuja to accept a negative report rather than accept the challenge of the IMC to visit the headquarters themselves, for an unbiased assessment, is yet unknown. The admittance of the committee that the Forensic Audit is ongoing is a welcome development,” he added.
