Our correspondent JAMES IGAH reports that the Senate also mandated its Committee on Niger Delta to investigate the circumstances leading to the funding constraints of the Amnesty programme.
The Senate took the decision after considering a motion sponsored by Senator PETER NWOBOSHI of the PDP from Delta North on the challenges facing the amnesty programme due to poor funding.
Senator NWOBOSHI had in the motion noted with serious concerns the challenges facing the Presidential Amnesty Programme due to delay in the release of funds.
The Senator noted that the financial challenge was already threatening the objective of the amnesty programme, as the implementation agency was finding it difficult to meet its obligation to workers and beneficiaries.
