President Bola Tinubu has taken decisive action in response to the mounting criticism surrounding the nominations for the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) board.
The President has approved the removal of Victor Akinjo, the Ondo state representative initially nominated for the position, and has directed the appointment of Otito Atikase as the new nominee.
Furthermore, President Tinubu has made another change by replacing Asi Oku Okang, the Cross River state nominee, with Orok Otuk Duke. These nominations had faced intense scrutiny, particularly from members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
