Erastus Awortu, Special Adviser to Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State on Niger Delta Development Commission Matters, has dismissed insinuations that his principal has plans to control the NDDC.
Awortu was reacting to claims in the social media that Wike asked a court of law to order the commission to seek the state government’s consent before executing projects.
Speaking with our correspondent on Saturday, Awortu said the court judgement was intended to eliminate duplication of projects and make the commission work better in the state and not for his principal to control the commission.
