About twenty armed police officers on Thursday surrounded the Port Harcourt home of Joy Nunieh, the former interim managing director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
“They (police officers) came here to my home since 4a.m., they have surrounded everywhere,” Ms Nunieh told an online publication on Thursday morning.
“I am inside my house, I can’t leave for Abuja where I am scheduled to appear today before the House of Representatives Investigative hearing on NDDC,” she added.
Ms Nunieh said she has called the police commissioner in Port Harcourt over the development, but the commissioner said her office and her officials were not involved in it.
Nunieh and the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, have been engaged in a war of words in the media over corruption allegations in NDDC being probed by the Senate.
