The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) has sealed off the corporate headquarters of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital.
It was gathered that the NDDC headquarters was sealed on Thursday as some staff of the commission were shut out of their offices.
According to an eyewitness, the seal was discovered when the staff of the interventionist agency were reporting for work.
He described the development as a shock, saying most workers returned home after waiting in vain to gain entrance for hours.
“We saw this seal on Thursday morning when the NDDC workers were coming to work, the situation caused confusion, many workers left while some waited around.
“Some workers still came to work today (Friday) and the gate is still sealed, to be honest with you I don’t know why a Federal Government agency would seal off another Federal agency,” he told The PUNCH.
