PAP Boss Otuaro Storms NDDC Stakeholders Meeting, Says Tinubu Ready To Develop Niger Delta
The Administrator, Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Dr. Dennis Otuaro, has appealed to the management of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, to pay special attention to project design in the riverine areas of the region.
The PAP boss made the appeal during a technical session of Niger Delta Stakeholders’ Summit 2024, according to a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr Igoniko Oduma.
The three days Stakeholders Submit is themed ‘Renewed Hope for Sustainable Development of the Niger Delta’ organised by the NDDC in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
“I know that the terrains of NDDC states are different, but my appeal is that for projects that are to be sited in the riverine areas, the NDDC should take a critical look at the designs because the designs are the contracting models. Compare the way you do contracts in those riverine communities and those in the upland areas,” he said in the statement.
He stated in the state that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is interested in sustainable development, stability and peace of the Niger Delta region.
The administrator further emphasised that leaders and stakeholders from the Niger Delta have a key role to play in providing sustainable development in the oil-rich region.
