The administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Dr Dennis Otuaro, has said he is working with all Niger Delta stakeholders to deepen the implementation of the programme’s objectives for the region.

Speaking when a delegation of the Coalition of Ndokwa Project paid him a courtesy visit at the PAP headquarters in Abuja, Otuaro said part of his reforms was to reinvigorate the programme and also accommodate more stakeholders.

According to him, the Ndokwa people are a significant part of the Niger Delta, and they are also beneficiaries of PAP’s scholarship scheme, vocational training initiatives, and employment.

Otuaro said his policy of inclusivity was driving his expansion plans for the scholarship scheme, while many of the region’s women would also benefit from an empowerment programme that would be rolled out soon.

According to him, they are in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu for sustainable peace, stability and socio-economic growth in the Niger Delta.

Addressing the delegation, Otuaro said: “When I came on board, I carried out reforms, and my idea is to turn around the programme and ensure that I accommodate more stakeholders. That is why in the past year since I came in, whatever we are doing, we are doing it across the board.”

Earlier, the leader of the Coalition of Ndokwa Project, Chief Dennis Okoh, commended Otuaro for the giant strides the PAP under his leadership had recorded.
