Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari has chosen former deputy governor of Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Nsima Ekere, as the managing director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC.
In a letter he sent to the Senate on Wednesday, he also tipped former Senate leader Victor Ndoma-Egba as chairman of the Commission.
Mrs Ibim Semenitari has been the acting MD of the NDDC since December 21, 2015.
The Senate is likely to approve the president’s appointments easily.
