…THAT HE INITIATED NDDC FORENSIC PROBE TO WITCH HUNT, CERTAIN PERSONS.
Nothing can be farther than the truth. It is not Senator Godswill Akpabio that initiated or proposed the NDDC forensic audit. It was the South-South governors that demanded it in their meeting with the President and Mr. President, in his own wisdom, granted it.
Though Senator Godswill Akpabio was in the meeting in his capacity as the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, he had no inkling of what the governors planned to present before the President.
In any event, a free conscience fears no allegations. It is only those who have skeletons in their cupboards that are afraid of the forensic audit.
Senator Akpabio is only carrying out a task given to him as the Hon Minister of Niger Delta Affairs by Mr. President. Those who are insinuating that he wants to use the NDDC forensic audit to witch hunt anybody are either mischievous or ignorant.
The audit is not being targeted at any person or organisation. It is intended to reposition, restructure and rebuild the Commission to achieve its original/core mandate.
