When last year president Umaru Musa Yar Adua announced an Amnesty package for repentant Militants, it was with gladness that Nigerians and all peace loving people of the Niger Delta region welcomed the pronouncement.
No sooner was the announcement made, then things went haywire, and from all indication, the amnesty program has totally failed to deliver on its promises of developing the Niger Delta region and rehabilitation repentant militants.
The dire implication of Government insensitivity to the plight of the region, may result in a huge outcry if not properly checked.
Another implication of allowing the Amnesty program to fail, is that the repentant militant may out of frustration and anger go back to the creek and their action could better be imagined.
It is time for action and not rethorics, as the impoverished people of Niger Delta are sick of hearing grammar and no action.
President Goodluck Jonathan should please revive the amnesty program and help nip the brewing agitation in the bud.
The entire world is watching!
