PACAC told Buhari to sack all the current board members of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC
Chairman of the Presidential Advisory
Committee Against Corruption (PACAC), Itse Sagay, has told President Muhammadu
Buhari to dissolve Niger Delta Development Commission's current board, NDDC.
According to getviewupadate, Professor
Sagay made this request when he appeared on Tuesday's Politics Television,
asking for injection of fresh members into the board.
He said, "I will suggest that
everyone should be cleared up and that the President should not appoint a new
set of people very quickly under temporary conditions so that a permanent board
and management can be established at the place that will then be monitored.
"My view is that everyone should
be removed right now. Clear the place, clean it up. Start afresh with a new set
of people.
He also described the Commission's
allegations as mind-boggling, wondering why forensic auditing could not be
carried out despite having a regular board of directors in charge of the
affairs of the case.
Recall that the Commission's budget
defense of the Agency's Interim Management Committee (IMC) in 2019 suffered a
setback.
Professor Kemebradikumo Pondei, the
acting Managing Director, MD, of the NDDC IMC, and the Executive Director
(Project), Dr Cairo Ojougboh, among others, appeared before the National
Assembly in Abuja during the week but could not successfully defend the budget
of the Agency for the year 2019, as the legislators pointed out some differences
in the budget.
