IT IS RIDICULOUS TO THINK I WAS ACTING WHEN I FAINTED - ACTING NDDC MD
Acting Managing Director (MD) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Prof Kemebradikumo Pondei, has said it is ridiculous for people to think he was acting when he fainted.
Recall that Pondei fainted while being questioned by lawmakers over allegations of corruption on July 20th, 2020.
He made this known in an interview with Vanguard on Tuesday, August 18th, 2020.
The NDDC acting MD revealed he had a mysterious and unpredictable health challenge and was stunned people thought he was acting.
“I had an unexplained, unexpected health challenge. It is ridiculous to think that people believed I was acting. I would not pray for anyone to experience what I went through. I do not run from issues. I have put all that behind me.”
Speaking on the delay in passing the Commission’s 2019 Budget, he said; “A minor typographical error was noticed and we asked for 10 minutes to amend the errors, but the presentation was stepped down. The National Assembly has since gone on recess.”
