AAmidst growing tension in the Niger Delta region, Nseobong Okon-Ekong recounts how the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio, has serially reneged on his promised dates to conclude the forensic audit of the Niger Delta Development Commission ordered by President Muhammadu Buhari in October 2019, thereby delaying the inauguration of a substantive NDDC Board
“So, the forensic audit of NDDC is on course and it is progressing very well and I am happy with the progress made so far. And I am very certain that by end of July which is just a month and a few weeks away the final result will be given to the president for implementation.”

Nseobong Okon-Ekong writes that the predictable gimmick of interim management committees and forensic audit reports deployed by Senator Godswill Akpabio, Minister of Niger Delta Affairs to delay inauguration of the Niger Delta Development Commission Board is about to run its course
Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio, Minister of Niger Delta Affairs is used to having his way. As Governor of Akwa Ibom State between 2007 and 2015, things had to be done his way or no way. He ruled when the Naira was relatively strong, compared to what we have today. At the peak of his power in 2013, former Minister of Finance and now the Director General of the World Trade Organisation revealed that revenue allocation to Akwa Ibom State was far in excess of the national budgets of countries like Ghana and Liberia. Akwa Ibom State got about USD1.7 billion (N260 billion) from the Federation Account in 2013.
