HRM King Ateke Applauds Dr. Otuaro For Repositioning Amnesty Programme.

....Urges Detractors To Stay clear

The King of Okochiri Kingdom in Okirika Local Government Area of Rivers State, HRM King Ateke Tom, has hailed the Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Dr Dennis Otuaro, for the achievements of his administration since he mounted the saddle.

He observed that Otuaro had quietly carried out well-thought-out reforms to reposition the PAP for better and quality service delivery.

The first-class monarch, who stated this when the PAP boss visited him at his palace in Okochiri at the weekend stressed that Otuaro had demonstrated that he has capacity to pilot the affairs of the programme.

These were contained in a statement issued by the Special Assistant on Media to the PAP Administrator, Mr Igoniko Oduma, on Sunday.

King Tom cautioned those he described as the detractors of Otuaro to stop their distractive activities, and allow him to concentrate on his job.

Responding, Otuaro described Okochiri as an ancient kingdom in Ijaw land, explaining that his visit to the traditional ruler was part of his ongoing consultations and engagements with critical stakeholders of the Niger Delta.

The PAP boss noted that King Tom was one of the major Niger Delta activists who was consistent with his advocacy for a better standard of living for the region.

He thanked King Tom for his fatherly advice and words of encouragement, saying that he and members of his team were poised to continually render quality service in line with the renewed hope agenda of the President.
