The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), has sent the name of Lauretta Onochie as the substantive chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission.
The Senate President, Ahmed Lawan, on Wednesday, at the plenary read the nomination letters sent to the senate by the president naming 14 others as members of the board.
This is the second time Buhari is forwarding a list of nominees for the NDDC board for confirmation.
He sent the first list of nominees for the board in 2021 and the Senate screened and confirmed the nominees.
However, Lawan stated that Buhari’s decision to send another list of nominees for confirmation was because there was a flaw in the previous compilation.
