The National Coalition of Niger Delta Ex-Agitators
(NCNDE-A) has called on youths to support the
federal government, urging them not to pay
attention to All Progressive Congress (APC)
'blackmailers' who will do anything to create
disunity within the country. The president of the
association, Israel Akpodoro, made the statement
in Abuja on Friday, Vanguard Newspaper
reported.

Mr. Akpodoro said in the statement that some
members of the opposition had brainwashed the
Niger Deltan youths to believe that the non-
payment of the amnesty allowance was a form of
punishment by the federal government. He
appealed to the government to pay the arrears of
the amnesty stipend, as such an act will go a long
way to restore peace in the region and dispel the
rumor that the federal government is punishing
ex-militants for the havoc of the Niger Delta
Avengers.
The association called on President Muhammadu
Buhari to pay the allowances so as to cushion the
effects of the current economic situation in the
nation.
