President Muhammadu Buhari has vowed that those involved in the misappropriation of six trillion naira pumped into the Niger Delta Development Commission NDDC would be made to cough out the missing funds.
Buhari who received the Forensic Audit Report carried out on the commission lamented that over 13.777 projects awarded by those at the helms of affairs were abandoned.
The President received the report through the Attorney General of the Federation AGF and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami.
Buhari while receiving the report said no one indicted for shady deals in the NDDC would be spared no matter how highly placed.
To demonstrate the federal government’s seriousness, the President ordered that the report be made available to the Federal Ministry of Justice for legal advice, which will pave way for the prosecution of the indicted people.
The report was presented by the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio.
Details shortly.
