The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has adopted a new Regional Development Master Plan to replace the previous 15-year plan, which expired in 2020. The decision was made during the NDDC 2025 Board and Management Strategic Retreat in Lagos, where stakeholders evaluated past progress and outlined strategies for improved regional development.
The communiqué, signed by Chairman Chiedu Ebie and Managing Director Samuel Ogbuku, emphasized stronger collaboration with Niger Delta states, ensuring projects align with community needs. It also called for budget discipline, adherence to statutory tenures for board members, and digital transformation in governance.
Additionally, the retreat adopted the KPMG Corporate Governance Report, advocating for international best practices and sustainable development. The participants commended President Bola Tinubu for fully implementing the NDDC Act, ensuring consistent funding for the Commission.
