BREAKING: Drama as NDDC MD, Pondei slumps during Reps interrogation

The Acting Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Prof. Kemebradikumo Pondei, on Monday slumped during the ongoing probe by the House of Representatives on the commission.

Pondei slumped while being grilled by the committee led by Thomas Ereyitomi.

It would be recalled that Pondei last week staged a walkout on the committee, stating that Mr. Ojo is a man of interest in the ongoing investigation.

The committee again on Friday summoned both Prof. Pondei and Sen. Godswill Akpabio, the minister for Niger Delta Affairs, following revelations by the former Acting Managing Director of the Commission, Joy Nunieh.

Akpabio, however, appeared before the committee.

NDDC has been enmeshed in controversy over alleged fraudulent activities and mismanagement.
