The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) has

inaugurated a 16-member budget committee to prepare its

2024 budget through engagements with stakeholders.

The NDDC Managing Director, Dr. Samuel Ogbuku, said that

the committee must first identify the vision of the commission

as an interventionist agency in order to prioritize the allocation

of available resources.

Ogbuku said that, the 2024 NDDC budget should strike a

balance in funding new projects, on-going projects, as well as

debt financing in order to get the buy-in of stakeholders.
