Group Passes Vote Of Confidence On NEDC Boss

A group, North East Progressives Alliance (NEPA) has lambasted critics of the managing director and chief executive officer of the North East Development Commission (NEDC) Mohamed Alkali, over alleged corrupt practices in the agency and passed a confidence vote on him.

At a press conference held in Maiduguri, Borno State by its national coordinator, Ishaya Bamanga, the group said those who have ran to the media to cheaply blackmail Alkali were used by mischief makers and those who are not acting in the interest of the North East’s development and peace.    

Bamanga in his address pointed out that under the Alkali-led NEDC, the organisation has played a crucial role in addressing the challenges faced by the region and is improving the living standard of the people as many lives have been touched positively.  

He said, “The North East Progressives Alliance (NEPA) has gathered in Maiduguri today to express our unwavering support for the managing director of the North East Development Commission (NEDC) amidst recent criticism. 

We are here to advocate for the recognition of the remarkable achievements made by the managing director in the North Eastern region of Nigeria. Under the competent leadership of the managing director, the NEDC has played a crucial role in addressing the challenges faced by the region and improving the lives of its residents.
