Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has accused the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) management of laying claim to and signing off on funds for a project carried out by the Rivers State Government.<\/p>\n

Wike made the allegation Friday at Government House in Port Harcourt during a visit by the commission’s new board, led by its Chairman, Mrs. Lauretta Ifeanyi Onochie, whom he charged with making a difference.<\/p>\n

He told the visitors that “NDDC fraudulently claimed to have reconstructed the Chokocho-Igwuruta Road and signed off on the money when, in fact, the road was reconstructed and delivered by his administration.”<\/p>\n

Governor Wike also represented Rivers government demand notice on the commission to pay up its counterpart fund of N2.5billion (50%) of the N5 billion mutually agreed between both parties for the reconstruction of the dualised Eastern By-pass Road leading to NDDC Headquarters.<\/p>\n

The governor said NDDC had entered into similar agreement for the construction of the Mother and Child Hospital, collected the counterpart fund released by the Rivers State government and refused to pay up theirs.<\/p>\n

He said his administration eventually jettisoned the agreement and footed the entire bills and completed the construction of the hospital.<\/p>\n

Urging the new NDDC board to make the difference, Wike told Onochie, \u201cI read what you said that things will be done differently. I want to believe you\u2019re sincere. Sometimes, I feel ashamed where I come from. We talk about underdevelopment, but look at the amount of money that has passed through NDDC, then look at the projects on ground.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is what we call regional development projects that can link up two states, those are the kind of things NDDC should go for and give it to competent contractors. Leave these political contractors. Leave all these portfolio contractors. Leave them alone. You have come to my state and you have seen what I have done.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I didn\u2019t use Julius Berger and had used these political contractors, you won\u2019t have seen anything here. Of course, you know how expensive Julius Berger is. From 2019 till now, we have done 12 Flyovers by Julius Berger. You know how much we are talking about and you can replicate that. Even though they are expensive, but you\u2019ll see the value.<\/p>\n

\u201cNDDC has become a cash cow for politicians. Look back in the money NDDC lost in this state just to win election here. N10 B wasted. N10B you could have used to construct a mega project in the State.\u201d<\/p>\n

Governor Wike noted how NDDC, often, enters and award projects in States including Rivers without recourse to existing development master plan as, according to him, what is seen eventually, is duplication of projects.<\/p>\n

In her remarks to the governor, the NDDC Chairman had said, \u201cThe development that has taken place in Port Harcourt, let me speak about the one I have seen, is amazing and it\u2019s brilliant. And I want to thank you.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are here to ask for your guidance. You have said and know, and you have spoken about the poor services that NDDC<\/a> have been known for. Trillions of Naira has been pumped into this commission and we have little or nothing to show for it. We are here now, very determined to do things differently.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
