A group known as Vanguard for Transparent Leadership and Democracy (VATLAD), has urged the members and leadership of House of Representatives not to create anymore crisis in the Niger Delta Region.

In a statement , the National President, (VATLAD)Comrade (Engr) Igbini Odafe Emmanuel explained that some members and leadership of the House of Representatives have resolved to urge President Buhari to disregard the Senate screened and confirmed members of Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).

He added that the screened members of the commission were put on standby for forensic auditing of alleged monumental fraud in the past twenty years of the Commission.
