The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC) is investigating the allegation against the Minister of the Niger Delta Affairs Godswill Akpabio and the acting Managing Director of the NDDC, Daniel Pondei.

The anti-graft agency is investigating the Niger Delta Affairs Minister and Mr Pondei for alleged diversion of public funds.

EFCC on Thursday met with members of the Foundation for True Freedom and Good Governance, led by Mr. Deji Adeyanju over the group’s petition.
