The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has dismissed reports that Lauretta Onochie, the chairperson of the commission’s board, asked for more aides.<\/p>\n

Recall that there were reports on Wednesday that\u00a0Onochie proposed to have more special assistants, and that members of the board rejected the purported request.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reacting to the claims\u00a0<\/span>in a statement on Thursday, the commission said Onochie, on her resumption as the chairperson of the board, insisted on a reduction of the number of aides attached to board members.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs the Chairman pointed out, the story is a tissue of lies designed to sow a seed of discord among members of the Board who are united in their resolve to make a difference in the Niger Delta<\/a>,\u201d the statement reads.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have always reported the various submissions by the Board members on their being united to work for the Niger Delta.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truth is that the [chairperson] insisted on a drastic reduction in the number of aides attached to board members, in line with extant rules and regulations of the federal government.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The NDDC also described the claim as an \u201cindication of a ploy to misinform the public in a bid to distract the Board\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe assure [you] that the Board will neither be distracted nor divided in its resolve to do things differently and make a difference in the Niger Delta,\u201d the commission added.<\/span><\/p>\n

On December 20, the senate confirmed<\/span>\u00a0Onochie, a former presidential aide, as the chairperson of the NDDC<\/a> after her nomination by President Muhammadu Buhari.<\/span><\/p>\n

The NDDC board was thereafter inaugurated pm January 4.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
