Rep member, Ethiope Federal Constituency, Hon Ben Igbakpa, says the slumping of the acting Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Prof Kemebradikumor Pondei seems fake to him and is based on the inability of the director to answer the questions thrown at him.
Igbakpa, made this known during his time on Channels TV, where he also accused the minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Chief Godswill Akpabio, of allegedly being too hard to work with.
“The video of Prof Pondei slumping will forever remain on the internet for years to come. His children will grow up to see it and they will ask him questions that why were you asked by the lawmakers to the extent that you had to die if you are really dying?

“I never believed his ‘dying’ was genuine, it cannot be genuine, I respect life. Everybody was worried over what happened, but in less than two hours he left the hospital. He actually came with a plan which was to sit before the committee chairman and tell him we cannot talk before you because he (committee chairman) is an interested party.
“A professor with a lot of brains suddenly became dumb. But he came and met a different game, and obviously couldn’t talk and had to do that. I knew it was not real and he was pretending because my inner spirit did not tell me it was real.”
