The chairman, Governing Council of the Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission (HYPPADEC) Barr. Joseph Terfa Ityav has reiterated that the Commission will continue to sustain the feats recorded by the management over the years.
This was contained in a statement made available to LEADERSHIP Weekend yesterday in Abuja signed by the head, Press and Public Affairs Nura Tanko Wakili. He said Ityav stated this during an emergency meeting held to review the performance of the commission.
He said the council expressed satisfaction with the performance of the current management led by the managing director, Abubakar Sadiq Yelwa describing the level of transparency exhibited in executing projects and programmes as encouraging and worthy of emulation.
Ityav also described as baseless, an article published by an online media alleging wrongdoings by the management of the commission calling it a calculated attempt aimed at distracting the managing director and his team from the good work.
He urged Nigerians especially those from HYPPADEC state to support the good work the commission is doing in improving the living standard of the affected communities.
According to the council chairman, a visit to any of the HYPPADEC communities will leave no one in doubt that, the commission is changing the narratives of over five decades of ecological and socioeconomic challenges with all the seriousness it deserves.
The council, therefore, encouraged the management and staff of the commission to remain focused and committed to achieving the mandate of the Commission.
