The acting Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, Prof Kemebradikumo Pondei, fainted on Monday during an investigative hearing at the National Assembly.
Pondei, a professor of Medicine suddenly lost consciousness in the heat of persistent questions over budgetary provisions on some spendings of the commission.
Apparently not satisfied with his answers, the committee kept throwing the questions in but at about 1.05pm, Pondei placed his head on the desk and gradually he passed out.
Pondei has subsequently been rushed out of the Conference Room 231, venue of the investigative hearing on illegal spending and mismanagement of funds in the commission.
The Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, however, stayed behind.
