Boroffice: Justice will be done on NDDC nominations

Ajayi Boroffice, senator representing Ondo north senatorial district, has assured citizens in his constituency that justice will prevail in the nominations for the board of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).

In a statement issued in Abuja by Kayode Adeniyi, his media aide, the APC chieftain appealed for calm due to tension which the appointment has generated.

“I have received countless calls, text messages and electronic mails from concerned people of Ondo State, particularly our brothers and the sisters from the oil-producing communities in Ondo State on the issue of nominees for the board of Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC),” he said.

“Some of the people did raise petitions and expressed dissenting views while some threatened to embark on protests as regards the composition of nominees for the Board of NDDC.

“However, the NDDC act is clear with no iota of ambiguity on the requirements that must be fulfilled.

“Therefore, I want to alert concerned and aggrieved citizens of Ondo state that the leadership of All Progressives Congress at the topmost level has intervened and taken up the issue.  Our people should be rest-assured that justice will be done on the issue.

“Finally, as members of one big political family, I appeal to concerned citizens to back out from any planned protest, if any, since the issue will be resolved soon.”
