They noted that with President Tinubu commitment to bringing Nigeria back to the path of sustainable development and bringing genuine change in the fortune of the people of Niger Delta, Ebie should galvanise his team to ensure that NDDC assiduously impacts positively on the people.
Responding, Ebie, a lawyer, assured that he and his team will “put in our best in the discharge of our duties to ensure the development of the region.”
The members of the NDDC board are expected to be screened by the Senate as soon as the lawmakers reconvene.
