[TODAY] BREAKING: Reps Adjourn Public Hearing On Ceding Of Waterways


The House of Representatives has adjourned the public hearing on the ceding of the nation’s waterways to some foreign companies till January 9, 2018.
The hearing was adjourned after the proceedings which lasted for about 20 minutes on Thursday at the National Assembly in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.
The House Committee on Public Petitions, led by Honourable Nkem-Obota Uzoma from Abia State, is probing the planned $195million concession of the nation’s waterways to foreign companies.
In the course of its investigation, the committee plans to question the Nigeria Navy, Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) and Federal Ministry of Transportation.
At today’s hearing, the Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, and the Director General of NIMASA, Dakuku Peterside, were among those in attendance.
The hearing was, however, adjourned after the committee was informed that the Navy had not received its invitation and was not prepared to respond to questions.
