NDDC MD Faints
Reacting to the video which has gone viral, many Twitter users in a thread described it as shameful noting that Nigerian leaders are jokes and embarrassment to the nation.
A Twitter user @jeffphilips1 tweeted “If not for coronavirus, the NDDC MD will be asking for treatment abroad tomorrow….COVID-19 is not all gloomy for us as a country, nobody on trial has applied for foreign treatment since Feb, none of them has died, even our president is getting fresher with just Aso Rock massage.
@gozie_victor said “This NDDC MD is truly an Actor!! We need to feature some of these govt officials in Nollywood movies from time to time.
@BeCogent “They asked the NDDC MD how he has spent 73 billion and baba fainted on live tv. The money sef shock am or what?? This whole country is one big circus show.
@Elow_vin said “Drama, Mr NDDC MD, you don’t know how to faint. It’s so disgusting how these people take Nigerians for fools. Tueh!
You will recall that the former Managing Director of the NDDC, Joy Nunieh had earlier testified before the committee at the National Assembly in Abuja.
The House of Representatives Committee on Niger Delta Development Commission is probing the alleged illegal expenditure and mismanagement by the NDDC.
