SAN FRANCISCO, August 26, (THEWILL) – The Federal Executive Council has approved N722.3 million for eight field forensic auditors to audit the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
The payment will come directly from the Presidency as the National Assembly is on break and the 2020 budget for the NDDC has not been passed.
THEWILL gathered that the field auditors will also look into the 12,000 abandoned projects in the Niger Delta.
The Minister of Niger Delta, Mr Godwill Akpabio, disclosed this on Wednesday after the virtual FEC meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari.
