A Civil Society Organisations (CSO) has described the allegations of corruption against some members of the National Assembly by the Interim Management Committee (IMC) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) as serious but common knowledge.

The CSO under the auspices of the Transparency in Petroleum Exploration and Development Initiative (TIPEDI), called on the National Assembly to allow the IMC complete the forensic audit assignment given to it by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The group reasoned that the current crisis of confidence between elected politicians particularly from the Niger Delta area and the NDDC would have serious negative effect on the commission and the hapless people of the area.

TIPEDI’s National Coordinator, Chief Nathan Egba in a statement on Thursday said some Federal legislators perpetually milked the commission over the years.
