Ex-Militants Seek Reintegration After Amnesty Programme
Hundreds of former Niger Delta agitators of Akwa Ibom State who participated in the state government’s disarmament programme have commended Governor Emmanuel Udom for convincing them to embrace the amnesty and rehabilitation programmes.
Under the aegis of Former Agitators For Peace in Akwa Ibom (FAPA), the group led by General G. Udoh and Commander Ekpe in a statement at the weekend in Uyo expressed appreciation to the administration of Governor Emmanuel for making their lives meaningful again.
The group pleaded with the state government to empower them with starter packs to begin trading because the community people are still afraid of them and they need to be reintegrated and trained in various trades and vocations like welding and fabrication, tailoring, building, Information and Communications Technology ICT.
