Hon. Stella Okotete, the Executive Director of the Nigeria Export Import Bank (NEXIM)





Niger Delta Development Agenda (NDDA) has threatened to name those behind the ongoing malicious and campaign of calumny against Hon. Stella Okotete, the Executive Director of the Nigeria Export Import Bank (NEXIM).

Urging Lawyers For Justice Reform and other groups of legal professionals to thoroughly check their facts and legal requirements before publishing anything, the group urged the element behind the recent attack to stop disparaging the reputation of the NEXIM’s chief.

The group, in a statement released in Port-Harcourt and signed by its Chairman, Mr. Iteveh Nur’ Ekpokpobe, and Secretary, Comr. Karo Edor, said that the Lawyers for Justice Reform petition was maliciously laced with intentional malice in order to bring an illustrious daughter of the Niger Delta into disrepute in front of the public.

The CSO, according to NDDA, was playing an ethnic card and following the instructions of an unnamed party that would soon be revealed, judging by the names of those who signed the petition.            

“As a pan Niger Delta Group, we shall not fold our arms and watch traducers pull down one of our very best who has performed impeccably well in her capacity as the Executive Director, Business Development.”

The NDDA emphasised how well Hon. Stella Okotete has performed in her role as an Executive Director, which has contributed to the expansion of the bank.

“According to section 14 (1) a, b and c of Nexim act stated that the bank shall be exempted from provisions of banks and other financial institutions act (BOFIA), among others particularly section 47 of BOFIA.

“We hereby urge the public to disregard the publication forthwith as it was done with malicious intents. We also sound a note of warning to the Lawyers For Justice Reform and any other group who may pop their heads in future to turn their face away from our illustrious daughter or face the tune.” the group stressed.
