Federal High Court to rule on October 31 on NDDC Chairman appointment challenge.

A Federal High Court in Abuja will rule on October 31 regarding the appointment of Mr. Chiedu Ebie as Chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC). Communities from Bayelsa and Delta States allege that President Bola Tinubu's appointment violates the NDDC Act, claiming Ebie lacks the necessary qualifications, as he does not hail from the highest oil-producing area. The plaintiffs seek to nullify Ebie's appointment and prevent him from assuming office.
