By our reporter| The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) on Thursday walked out on lawmakers at an investigative hearing put together by the House of Representatives.
According to the acting managing director of the NDDC, Professor Kemebradikumo Pondei, the Commission refused to make presentations before the House Committee on NDDC because it will not be fair for them to partake an investigative hearing which is being presided over by the chairman of the committee who has been accused by the NDDC of hijacking the Commission’s projects.
Professor Pondei was of the opinion that the NDDC will not get a fair hearing.
Following the NDDC’s action, the lawmakers resolved to issue a warrant of arrest compelling Professor Pondei and his team to appear before the committee and make their submission.
