Nigeria: President Yar'Adua Says he Is Happy With Militants Position.

FEW days after the declaration of amnesty to the Niger Delta militants, President Umaru Musa Yar’adua has commended the militants that have so accepted to lay down their arms and stop violent activities in the interest of peace and stability of the region and the country at large.

President Yar’adua, who was speaking at the Ibrahim Babangida Square during the presentation of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) flag to Governor Isa Yuguda of Bauchi State last Saturday, expressed optimism that the amnesty being extended to the militants in the Niger Delta region would solve the lingering crisis in the region and called on the all militant leaders to embrace it, declaring that he was happy and grateful that most of the militants had come out to lay down their arms and agreed stop the violence in the region.

A highly elated President said, “I thank God for this favour on Nigeria. I thank the militants for accepting this and for being patriotic enough to understand and accept the amnesty for the greater benefit of the country,” and called on citizens particularly, those who were aggrieved in one way or the other, to come forward and identify with his government, assuring that his administration would provide the necessary atmosphere for every one to participate in building the nation.

The President said: “Let’s work hard and exert ourselves to see that Nigeria becomes one of the best economies in the year 2020. My government will continue to ensure peace and harmony and provide the enabling environment for this transformation.”
