<b>ABUJA, NIGERIA - President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday appointed General P. T. Boroh as the new coordinator of the Amnesty Programme for the Niger Delta militants.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, said the appointment takes immediate effect.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The appointment which was announced Tuesday night in Abuja came on the heels of protests by the former militants over the non-payment of their allowances.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Adesina in the statement said the appointment of Boroh is expected to douse the tension over the outstanding allowances.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The statement read: </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of Brigadier-General P.T. Boroh (rtd) as the Coordinator of the Amnesty Programme for former Niger Delta militants. </div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Brig. Boroh, whose appointment takes immediate effect, is to take over the responsibilities of the former Special Adviser to President Jonathan on Niger Delta who also doubled as Coordinator of the Amnesty Programme. </div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The appointment of a new Coordinator for the Amnesty Programme is expected to lead to the speedy resolution of recent hitches in its implementation such as the non-payment of outstanding allowances to ex-militants.</div>
</blockquote>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Amnesty Programme was established by late President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua in 2009 to calm the nerves of Niger Delta militants who were disrupting oil production on account of alleged maginalisation of the oil rich region in the distribution of the oil wealth in the country.</div>
