NDCCITMA Confirms Niger Delta Summit Unhindered by Court
The Niger Delta Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Trade, Mines and Agriculture (NDCCITMA) has dismissed allegations of trademark appropriation concerning the Niger Delta Economic & Investment Summit (NDEIS). The Chamber confirmed that it followed due regulatory processes, obtaining a Trademark Acceptance Letter in August 2025 under File No.
NG/TM/O/2025/387284. NDCCITMA stated that there is no court order preventing the NDEIS, scheduled for September 15-17, 2026, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
It emphasized that the term "Economic Summit" is generic and does not confer exclusive ownership of the concept. While acknowledging ongoing litigation at the Federal High Court in Port Harcourt, with a hearing set for September 22, NDCCITMA clarified that an interim injunction had been granted in the related suit.
The Chamber intends to allow the courts to resolve the dispute while continuing its activities to promote economic development in the Niger Delta.
