Delta (MEND), Government Ekpemupolo, popularly called
Tompolo, has commended President Buhari for appointing
Brig. Gen. Paul Boroh (retd.) as the new coordinator of the
Presidential Amnesty Programme.
In a statement he released yesterday July 29th, Tompolo
said he was happy that the position was not handed to a
political jobber ..
"It could be recalled that I called a meeting of ex-
agitators, leaders and other stakeholders in the Niger
Delta last week as a result of the pressure on me to
intervene in the seemingly troubled Amnesty
Programme, due to the non-payment of the stipends
and allowances to beneficiaries for months now. And
so, it gives me joy for the President to appoint a
high-ranking retired military gentleman to coordinate
the programme rather than any of the political
jobbers, who had advertised themselves in very
negative forms in order to be appointed.”he said
