Buhari nominates Loretta Onochie as NDDC board chairman, others

President Muhamadu Buhari has nominated Loretta Onochie as the new board chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC after she was rejected as INEC National Commissioner.

Onochie and others are to be screened by the Senate three years after the first list was archived because the then minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio wanted to conduct a forensic audit.

The list of nominees sent by Buhari were announced by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan on Wednesday.
