The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has said that it was ready to cooperate with the Senate following the latter’s plan to probe the 2021 and 2022 budgets of the commission.

The Senate had during its plenary on Wednesday, set up an ad-hoc committee to probe the financial activities of the NDDC for 2021 and 2022 fiscal years.

The Red Chamber of the National Assembly also stood down consideration of the proposed 2023 budget of the NDDC for further information and clarification on the figures contained in the estimates.

But, the NDDC headquarters, in a statement issued in Port Harcourt, Rivers State on Thursday, by its Director of Corporate Affairs, Ibitoye Abosede, said the Commission appreciated the concerns expressed by the Senate and that it was ready to cooperate with the parliament.

The statement reads in part: “The NDDC respects the oversight function of the Senate and is ready to cooperate with the investigation committee. The Commission has nothing to hide and is committed to transparency and accountability in its operations.

“It is important that we clarify that the Senate has not accused the Board and Management of the NDDC of corruption or misappropriation of N1.4 Trillion.

“The Senate only thinks that the funds were expended without approval or appropriation by the National Assembly. This misunderstanding can be quickly resolved by providing the necessary documents and explanations.

“The NDDC also wishes to explain that the delays in submitting its budgets and audited accounts to the National Assembly were due to factors beyond its control, such as bureaucratic bottlenecks and frequent leadership changes. The Commission has, however, taken steps to address these issues to ensure timely compliance with all statutory requirements.

“We appeal to the general public to refrain from making hasty judgments based on the Senate’s decision. The NDDC assures all stakeholders of its dedication to the development of the Niger Delta region and the welfare of its people.”
