The Bayelsa State APC Elders Council has called for the immediate sack and arrest of the Presidential Amnesty Programme interim administrator, Major Gen. Barry Ndiomu for allegedlly supporting the people's democratic party and Governor Douye Diri in Bayelsa State.
In a statement on Wednesday, Chairman of the Bayelsa State APC Elders Council, Chief Maxwell Adomokeme, wondered why Major Gen Ndiomu has allegedlly decided to remain an aide of sort to the Governor of Bayelsa State Douye Diri instead of focusing on Niger Delta’s delicate security concerns which it said was his primary job description.
The statement read “We wonder also why confidential mail communication between his office and the office of the Secretary to the Government of The Federation would be deliberately leaked and made subject of pedestrian deliberations.
“We are not concerned about his obvious PDP ties and the fact he is a kinsmen to former Governor Dickson, our only concern is why he has consistently converted the Amnesty Programme to an anti-APC apparatus which is made more evident in his overwhelming empowerment of PDP card-carriers and his recent and painful support of H.E Atiku Abubakar during the last presidential elections”
“The Amnesty office is fundamentally meant to keep peace in the Niger Delta Region and it’s development.
" But beyond that, we urge the Department of State Security to investigate leakages in communication between government agencies as such acts are worrisome.
"We are calling for the immediate sack, arrest and prosecution of Major General Barry Ndiomu for leaking official government communication and for turning the noble presidential
amnesty program to a mere empowerment scheme of the People’s Democratic Party”
“We thank His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the innovative pathways to progress he has unveiled since becoming President. We are certain our dear nation is on the pathway of sustained progress. The statement concluded.
When Freston Akpor the media aid to the interim administrator was contacted on phone, he said that he travelled and was yet to get to the office.
