Chairman! Are you not forgetting something? Senator Nurudeen
Abatemi-Usman, the Vice Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Niger
Delta asked Senator James Manager, the arrowhead of the committee. Of
course, the chairman did not forget what had become a sing-song for him
after inspecting projects that deserved plaudits. So, he intoned: ‘To
God be the glory!”
That generally sums up the impressions of the senators after their one-week inspection tour of projects being executed by the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC in Abia, Cross River and Akwa Ibom states. The senators saw all there was to see. In some cases, they were satisfied. In others, they were disappointed. At the end of the day, Senator Manager still held on to his mantra: To God be the glory!
