This comes amid reports in some sections of the media that the NDDC Managing Director was arrested in connection with an alleged coup plot.
The Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Dr. Samuel Ogbuku, has denied reports alleging that he was arrested in connection with a coup plot.

This comes amid reports in some sections of the media that the NDDC Managing Director was arrested in connection with an alleged coup plot.
Earlier, Daily Post reports that an All Progressives Congress, APC, chieftain, Yekini Nabena, dismissed the reports of the alleged arrest.
The APC chieftain called on the general public to dismiss the report of the arrest of the NDDC boss.
“We woke up yesterday to see some fabricated social media reports that Dr Sam Ogbuku was arrested. And we asked, for what? Well, there’s the ongoing agricultural summit in Port Harcourt, where the managing director spoke live this morning, and it was carried live on two national television channels. We hope that this will put the purveyors of fake news to shame.
“We ask the general public to disregard the fake news and see it as it is: fake,” Nabena said.
On Wednesday, former Bayelsa State governor and former Nigerian minister Timpriye Sylva confirmed that his residence in Abuja was raided.
He, however, denied any involvement in the alleged coup plot.
In the past week, there have been rumours of a coup plot in Nigeria.
Thereafter, last Friday, President Tinubu reshuffled his country’s service chiefs.
However, the military and Nigerian government have repeatedly dismissed the alleged coup plot rumours.
