Ijaw Youths Council commends Tinubu on PAP Administrator’s appoint
The Ijaw Youth Council (IYC) has commended President Bola Tinubu for appointing Chief Dennis Otuaro as the Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP).
The commendation was given in a statement jointly signed in Yenagoa on Friday by the council’s president, Mr Jonathan Lokpobiri, and its spokesman, Amb. Binebai Princewill.
The statement appreciated Tinubu for not only finding Otuaro worthy of the appointment but also listening to the yearnings of the council and the Ijaw people in general.
“With this, President Tinubu has shown that he is truly a listening president,” it read.
According to the statement, Otuaro’s appointment is coming at a time the nation needs committed and result-oriented leaders at the helm of its affairs.
The council, via the statement, described the new administrator as a tested and trusted leader in the Niger Delta; a man conversant with the myriad of issues bedevilling the region.
“Otuaro is a known face who also played an active role in the formation of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP).
“His appointment is significant in many ways, and the IYC is optimistic that Otuaro will bring in his experience to sustain the gains recorded by previous administrators of the programme and also improve on it in line with current realities,” the statement read.
According to the statement, the council expects the administrator to bring about a lot of reforms as he works closely with all stakeholders in the region to implement the aims and objectives of the programme.
