In one fell swoop, the multi-billion naira VTC, built by the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) was on February 14 reduced to ruins, as it was vandalised, looted and raped by the people it was meant to serve. What followed was the invasion by hundreds of both the young and old, who started carting away anything in sight. In his reaction, the Spokesman to the Coordinator of the Amnesty office, Murphy Ganagana, said it was hoodlums that invaded the place. Trucks were taken to other states through the Kaiama office to Akwa Ibom, Delta and Cross River, among others. It is the prerogative of Amnesty Office to transfer any officer to anywhere.
