• Ex-Militant Group Lauds President
President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the Niger Delta region needs a new deal, having suffered so much deprivation and neglect.
The President disclosed that the Federal Government was repositioning the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) and the Amnesty Programme to ensure they deliver on their mandates to develop the region.
Buhari stated this yesterday while declaring open, the fourth meeting of the National Council on Niger Delta at the Hotel Presidential, Port Harcourt. x
This is just as ex-militant groups, under the aegis of the 21st Century Youths of the Niger Delta and Agitators with Conscience (21st CYNDAC), commended the President for his bold step to avert attempts to truncate the forensic audit of the Commission by disgruntled stakeholders from the region.
