Senator and member of the Senate ad hoc committee has maintained that the health of NDDC Financial Director Ibanga Etang and the closure of the agency’s headquarters for two weeks will not stop the probe on the NDDC.
A member of the ad hoc panel from the South – East geopolitical zone speaking to the punch said,
“The Senate has given us an assignment and we must deliver on our mandate.
“We have done the necessary things by communicating to them seeking relevant information that we will work on.
“We believe that neither the closing down of the corporate headquarters of the agency nor the death of a director should prevent the various institutions of government and individuals in their official capacity from providing what we demanded.
“The death of an official will not stop us from doing our job because we don’t believe that he was the sole custodian of all the official documents we need.”
However the Chairman of the Senate ad hoc committee. Olubunmi Adetunmbi also stated that,
“Our ad hoc committee will brief the media on Tuesday. That is when you will know what we have done so far and our next line of action.”
