The Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, has said ongoing reforms and digitisation initiatives within the commission will enhance service delivery, transparency, and operational efficiency.

Ogbuku asserted during a visit to the NDDC office in Yenagoa, according to a statement issued by the commission’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Mrs Seledi Thompson-Wakama.

He explained that the reforms form part of the management’s broader strategy to reposition the commission and improve its overall performance.

According to him, the digitisation programme is designed to modernise the institution, streamline workflow processes, and eliminate bureaucratic bottlenecks that affect effective service delivery.

Ogbuku stated that the initiative would also strengthen transparency, accountability and efficiency across the commission’s operations.

He expressed confidence that the reforms would make the NDDC more responsive to the developmental needs of communities across the Niger Delta region.

The managing director further noted that his interaction with staff members provided an opportunity to strengthen internal engagement and encourage greater commitment to the commission’s transformation agenda.

He urged employees to embrace the ongoing reforms and remain dedicated to the commission’s vision of delivering sustainable development projects and improving the living standards of people in the region.

According to him, the cooperation, professionalism, and dedication of staff members remain critical to the success of the reforms and the achievement of the commission’s objectives.

Also speaking during the visit, the Director of the NDDC Bayelsa Office, Mr Godknows Alamieyeseigha, expressed confidence in the reform process.

He assured the management that staff members would continue to provide quality service and support initiatives aimed at promoting development across the Niger Delta.
