3000 ex-Niger Delta agitators on scholarship — Official


The interim Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, Major General Barry Ndiomu (retd. ), has said no fewer than 3000 former Niger Delta agitators are on scholarship in tertiary institutions in the country and abroad. He added that all their tuition and allowances for the 2022/2023 sessions had also been paid. The Special Adviser on Media to the PAP Administrator, Freston Akpor, disclosed this in a statement on Monday while dispelling allegations that the scheme had yet to deploy delegates under the scholarship programme.
