Niger Delta Integrity Group (NDIG), has warned that the continued collection of N65,000 monthly stipends by ex-agitators is capable of truncating the noble
intention of the Presidential Amnesty Programme and encourage the federal government to terminate it.
To this end, the group has asked stakeholders in the Niger Delta to cooperate with the interim administrator of the PAP, Maj. Gen. Barry Ndiomu to remove all those who have been trained and empowered but are still insisting on being paid the N65,000 monthly stipends. The convener of the NDIG, Dr Boma Horsfall in a statement issued in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, expressed concern that those who has been removed from further payment had embarked on street protest to embarrass the new interim administrator rather than cooperate with him to ensure the success of the programme.
