President Muhammadu Buhari appoints new Coordinator Niger Delta Amnesty Program

President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday selected Brigadier-General P.T. Boroh (rtd.) as the Coordinator of the Amnesty Program for previous Niger Delta militants.

An announcement by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, said that Brig. Boroh’s arrangement takes immediate effect.

Boroh is assuming control over the obligations of the previous Special Adviser to President Jonathan on Niger Delta who additionally served as Coordinator of the Amnesty Program.

The arrangement of another Coordinator for the Amnesty Program, the announcement said, is to prompt the speedy resolution of late hitches in its implementation , for example, the non-installment of outstanding allowances to ex-militants.
