A nonpartisan group advocating development in the Niger Delta region, the Global Forum for Accountability and Transparency, Nigeria, has restated its call for the disqualification of the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio from supervising the forensic audit of the Commission.
Founder and Lead Executive of the group, Joseph Ambakederimo, while briefing journalists in Abuja, insisted that as one of the indicted persons, Akpabio should be asked to resign to pave way for proper investigations into the established mismanagement of the NDDC. He added further that, “we are also requesting that Mr. Godswil Akpabio and his IMC team should recuse themselves from suprintending over the forensic audit and resign their appointment for the fact that they have been found culpable by every measurable indicator and therefore lack the moral justification to continue to be be in charge of a serious exercise.
The group in a separate statement, alleged that the Pondei-led Committee is mopping up huge funds to influence the final report of the Probe Committee.
