Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta and Chairman of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, Mr. Kingsley Kuku, has faulted an online news portal, stating that the Amnesty programme of the government would fail within months.
In a statement by the Head of Media and Communication of the Amnesty Office on Thursday, Kuku insisted that the programme would not fail, despite the activities of sea pirates in Niger Delta.
The Presidential aide said the pirates, whose activities were carried in the report, might not necessarily come from the Niger Delta and even Nigeria.
He said the government had ensured effective demobilisation of the 26,358 ex-militants currently undergoing various skill acquisition and formal education programmes after completing their training.
