Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC)

The Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) is an agency of the Nigerian government established in 2000 to promote the development of the Niger Delta region, which is rich in oil but faces significant socio-economic challenges. The NDDC aims to enhance infrastructure, education, health, and sustainable development to improve living conditions for the local communities. It facilitates projects and initiatives that address environmental degradation and social issues stemming from oil production. By focusing on local involvement and empowerment, the NDDC seeks to create a balanced and prosperous future for the people of the Niger Delta.
