Sen Ekong charges new NDDC board to tackle the problems of the region

The Senator representing Akwa Ibom South, Ekong Sampson has called on the just confirmed management and board of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) to go to the roots of the problems of the Niger Delta and tackle them.

Speaking shortly after the Senate confirmed the 17 man management team, Senator Sampson said the new team should “go back to the drawing board to study in detail the problems of the Niger Delta; do deep self-evaluation to find out the missing link; those gaps must be filled”.
