The Niger-Delta DevelopmentCommission, NDDC interim management committee says a serving Senator issingle-handedly handling about 300 contracts for the Commission.
The Commission’s Acting ExecutiveDirector of Projects, Cairo Ojougboh said 120 of the contracts have been fullypaid for. He, however, did not say if the contracts were executed and did notname the Senator.
Ojougboh added that the contractswere under investigation, while the commission owes contractors about threetrillion naira.
The Acting Director said the currentforensic audit would help uncover how the debt was accrued and those opposed tothe audit have something to hide, as they must have played a role incommission’s mismanagement.
Ojougboh accused the Senator ofsponsoring a campaign against the interim management, which he said wouldfunction for less than six months and hand over to the substantive board.
