The All Progressive Congress APC South South has pleaded with president Muhammadu Buhari to return the Niger Delta Development Commission NDDC to the office of SGF.
The party disclosed this in a statement signed by APC National Vice Chairman, South South, Prince Hilliard Eta in Abuja.
Eta noted that the president’s forensic order on the commission should start with the Water Hyacinth contract.

He said “if there is going to be a forensic audit of NDDC, they should start with the last water hyacinth contract that was done between the office of the Minister of Niger Delta and the office of the Acting Managing Director of NDDC.”
He also noted that it was wrong for the Minister of Niger Delta, Sen. Godswill Akpabio to set up an interim management team for the Commission against the management team approved by the President.
It would be recalled that President Muhammadu Buhari recently asked for the Forensic auditing of NDDC when the Niger Delta States governors visited him.
On the Forensic auditing of NDDC, the President had said, “I try to follow the Act setting up these institutions especially the NDDC. With the amount of money that the Federal Government has religiously allocated to the NDDC, we will like to see the results on the ground; those that are responsible for that have to explain certain issues.
“The projects said to have been done must be verifiable. You just cannot say you spent so much billions and when the place is visited, one cannot see the structures that have been done. The consultants must also prove that they are competent.
