Orok Otu Duke, a representative from Cross River State on the Board of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), has raised concerns about the financial limitations faced by individual contractors in the state when it comes to executing NDDC projects. In an interview in Calabar, Duke unveiled five new books on various subjects and spoke about the challenges faced by contractors in the region.
Duke noted that only one or two individuals in Delta State had successfully secured and independently executed NDDC contracts, despite the commission's presence across nine states in the Niger Delta region. He attributed this situation to the high financial requirements and demanding qualification procedures that many local contractors find difficult to meet.
Duke urged prospective contractors in Cross River State to enhance their financial and technical capacities to compete for NDDC projects. He encouraged them to take up the challenge and overcome the barriers presented by the commission's stringent requirements.
