‘There’s progress’: Presidential amnesty graduates laud PAP boss Otuaro

The National Association of Presidential Amnesty Graduates (NAPAG) has commended the innovative leadership of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) Administrator, Dr Dennis Otuaro.

NAPAG, in a statement issued by its National Coordinator, Somina Morrison Igani, on Tuesday, August 13, 2024, commended Otuaro’s leadership support for academic pursuits.

Igani also hailed the PAP boss for bringing improvements in overseeing the Presidential Amnesty Programme.

He stated that Otuaro’s innovative leadership approach has manifested greatly in all aspects of the programme, particularly in his determined effort to bridge the human capital development gap in the Niger Delta.

He noted that the PAP Administrator’s steadfast dedication has resulted in significant progress in several areas under the programme.

The NAPAG boss listed these to include enhanced academic opportunities through scholarship awards, prompt payment of monthly stipends to PAP delegates, and a revitalised vocational skills acquisition programme.

Igani said: “Under his (Otuaro’s) leadership, there has been a significant increase in support for academic pursuits, enabling many ex-agitators to pursue higher education and professional training.

“This special attention to academics has not only empowered individuals but also contributed immensely to the socio-economic development of the Niger Delta region and beyond.

“The prompt disbursement of allowances under Dr Otuaro’s leadership has been instrumental in the sustenance of the livelihoods of many former agitators.”

He added that the prompt payment of monthly allowances to ex-agitators had been crucial to sustainable peace, security and stability in the region, saying this was a huge support to the reintegration process.

Igani noted that the PAP boss had demonstrated dedication to the academic progress of NAPAG members, stressing that they were happy to identify with the leadership of Otuaro.

“His administration has significantly expanded educational opportunities, ensuring that we are better equipped to contribute to the nation’s growth,” Igani added.

The NAPAG boss, therefore, urged Otuaro to maintain the positive impact of his innovative administration on the people and communities of the Niger Delta region.
