Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, a former governor of Delta State has demanded a retraction from the Minister of Niger Delta affairs, Godswill Akpabio over claims he was awarded contracts by the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).

In a statement on Monday by his Media Assistant, Monoyo Edon, Uduaghan said the report in a national daily that he was involved in the emergency repairs of Close B, Alhaji Estate & Environs, Rumuodomaya, Port Harcourt at a cost of N429m is nothing but pure falsehood.

While urging members of the public to disregard the report, Uduaghan who said he has never approached the NDDC for any contract added that he has drawn Akpabio’s attention to the report and wants him to correct the erroneous allegations.

The statement reads “The attention of His Excellency, former Gov of Delta State Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, has been drawn to a publication by The Punch Newspapers of Monday 3rd August 2020, which stated that the “Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio, has linked two former governors of Delta State, Messrs James Ibori and Emmanuel Uduaghan, to the various contracts awarded by the Niger Delta Development Commission”

“In the said publication, it was stated that “Uduaghan was linked to the emergency repairs of Close B, Alhaji Estate & Environs, Rumuodomaya, Port Harcourt at a cost of N429m.”

“We want to state very clearly that the said accusation is FALSE. Dr. Uduaghan has never approached the NDDC for any contract whatsoever. It is even more ridiculous that the said contract is a road inside Port Harcourt town”.

“Dr. Uduaghan has drawn the attention of the Hon. Minister of the Niger Delta, Sen Godswill Akpabio to the publication and hopes he makes a correction. Members of the public are advised to disregard the mischevious publication” .

Since the name & the location of the supposed projects were given by Mr Akpabio, Nigerians can easily verify the truth & upload video evidence online.

Except Niger Delta people are comfortable with the looting spree in NDDC.

We are not in the analog era anymore.
