Senate To Investigate NDDC For Unauthorised Expenditure

The Nigerian Senate has constituted an ad-hoc committee to investigate alleged unauthorized spending by the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) on its 2021 and 2022 budget estimates.

The decision was reached following a motion by Senator Adamu Alero (PDP- Kebbi) who raised concern over the NDDC’s breach of the constitution by engaging in expenditure on the budget estimates without the approval of the National Assembly.
