Others are 51 sand filling projects, 17 shore protection projects, 36 solar water projects, among others.

The statement said that the action was a fall out of the forensic audit and Presidential directive issued earlier in May 2022.

It states: “This is to bring to the notice of all contractors engaged by the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), as well as stakeholders and the general public, that the Presidency has directed that all projects awarded by the Commission before December 31, 2019, for which the beneficiary contractors are yet to mobilise to site, are by this directive cancelled,” the statement read.

It added that “this cancellation is subject to any future re-award in accordance with the Public Procurement Act and in line with the terms of the contracts for the award of the said projects.
