President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, and
the leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has been urged to
ignore calls by some mischief makers to scrap the Presidential Amnesty
Programme.
This call was made by former Niger Delta militants coming under the
aegis of Leadership, Peace and Cultural Development Initiative, LPCDI.
The repentant militants spoke on the heels of calls by prominent businessman in the region, , and others questioning the rationale for sustenance of the programme.
They asserted that such call was in bad faith and utterly misguided.
National President of LPCDI, Pastor Reuben Wilson, who spoke on Wednesday, described Emami’s call on Buhari to scrap the amnesty programme as one which was premised on his “pathological hatred for the Ijaw nationality.”
He stressed that it was also based on his misconceived idea that the Ijaws were the major beneficiaries of the amnesty programme, but argued that the programme was for all Niger Delta ex-militants.
