Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, says members of the National Assembly get most of the contracts in the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
Akpabio made the disclosure during a hearing of the house of representatives Niger Delta committee probing activities of the NDDC.
“We all know that most of the contracts at NDDC are given to members of the national assembly,” he said.
He said 60 percent of NDDC contracts were awarded to National Assembly members and this led to a heated dialogue between him and a committee member.
He was later interrupted by the members of the committee who asked him to give clarifications on other issues.
