The Presidency on Friday denied reports that it has dissolved the Interim Management Committee of the Niger Delta Development Commission.
The Senior Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, rebuffed the claims.

In a statement on Friday titled, ‘Fake News On NDDC Attributed To Me’, Adesina wrote:

“A statement purportedly signed by me has been making the rounds that the Federal Government has dissolved the Interim Management Committee of the NDDC.

“Merchants of fake news in action. The communication did not emanate from the media office of the President. Please ignore.”
There have been recent calls by members of the National Assembly for the dissolution of the committee.
