Allegation
The Delta Youths for Good Governance and Anti-Corruption accused Uduaghan of embezzling roughly ₦200 billion in Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission (DESOPADEC) funds during his 2007-2015 tenure, alleging diversion through phantom companies and cronies; a separate, broader petition alleged corruption running into hundreds of billions of naira, and the EFCC was separately reported to be preparing to try Uduaghan and his deputy for money laundering as early as 2010.
Outcome / Status
Uduaghan denied the allegations, saying DESOPADEC funds were transparently applied to development projects and that audits showed accountability; no independently confirmed charge or conviction had resulted as of the most recent reporting.
Administration's response
Uduaghan characterised the accusations as politically motivated and pointed to state audits as evidence of accountability.
