In a related development, the former Managing Director of the Niger-Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Joy Nunieh has been moved out of her residence to Government House Port Harcourt.

Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike moved her out after the officers had stormed the home of the Nunieh at 3, Owuru Creek view, off Herbert Macaulay Street, Old GRA, Port Harcourt.

Governor Wike’s visit was predicated by the invasion of the residence of Nunieh by officers of the Nigerian police force early Thursday.
