Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) N40 billion scandal has taken a new twist.

Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, Acting Executive Director, Projects, Interim Management Committee (IMC) revealed that no single Kobo has been misapplied by the Committee since it came on board.

He told the Senator Olubunmi Adetunmbi led Ad-hoc Committee probing into alleged financial recklessness to the tune of N40 billion by the IMC that since the interim management came on board, it has not awarded any contract, except the recent one of the Coronavirus, COVID-19 Pandemic where Palliatives were given to people.

Ojougboh has accused both the Chairman, Senate Committee on Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Peter Nwaoboshi and his House of Representatives counterpart as the problem of the interventionist agency.

He added that if they remain as chairmen of the Committees, Niger Delta region will never develop.
