There is rumbling in the Niger Delta Development Commission, following the jostle for the position of the Managing Director currently occupied by Bayelsa born Sam Ogbuku.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A source in the commission revealed that all was well with the agency as Ogbuku and other Directors were doing the biddings of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Chief Ezenwo Nyesom Wike until recently when Ogbuku’s tenure was coming to an end.

According to the source, Sam Ogbuku who was looking forward to Wike’s reciprocal support to be reappointed as the Managing Director of the agency recently found out that the Minister was instead clandestinely rooting for another candidate from Delta State as it becomes the turn of Delta to produce the next helmsman for the Commission.

The source said, ”Armed with this information of the plot to truncate his ambition to return to the commission as Managing Director, Sam Ogbuku has strategically meandered his way into the high powers in Aso Rock where he is fighting all by himself to retain his position as the Managing Director of the agency.

”These moves have already created a crack in the once coordinated team used by the FCT Minister to control the agency in doing his biddings.

”Part of the fall out of this rumbling is the none payment of casual staff of the agency in the past one month which is breeding some uncomfortable grumblings amongst personnels of the agency.

The Source added, ”The MD’s disagreement with one of Wike’s ally, Alabo George Kelly over the alleged purchase of an event centre and accusation of deliberately starving Wike’s men in the agency of funds including Boma Iyaye, who has been accused in one hand by the Wike camp of abandoning their cause have indeed brought a full blown conflict between Ogbuku and Wike.

”Boma it was learnt is angry that he could not facilitate employment of his own people in the agency as only the Minister of FCT is fixing people from his own area especially in the last employment done. As it is Boma Iyaye has lost the power to influence any employment of his aides and others from his constituency.

”Currently, the rumbling is taking its heavy toll on the agency as no meaningful activity is ongoing due to the division and avaricious pursuit of the leaders”.

All efforts to speak with the Director, Corporate Affairs, NDDC, Seledi Thompson-Wakama, on the development proved abortive.
