New Amnesty Boss, Otuaro, Assumes Duty As Ndiomu Quits

New administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Office, Dr Dennis Otuaro, has resumed duty at the agency’s headquarters in Abuja.

The technical assistant to the former interim administrator, Maj Gen Barry Ndiomu (rtd), Mr Ita Henshaw, handed over the notes to Otuaro in a brief ceremony in Abuja yesterday.

In his speech, Otuaro said that he would not betray the trust reposed in him by President Bola Tinubu and the national security adviser, Mr. Nuhu Ribadu.

He said his mission in the Presidential Amnesty Office under him would render quality service to the Niger Delta region and the nation, stressing that there would be no room for failure.

Otuaro urged the members of staff to be focused and give him the requisite cooperation to move the office forward.

He assured that he is not in the Amnesty Office to pursue personal gains even as he urged the members of staff to embrace his principle.

Otuaro promised to bring the programme closer to the people

Tinubu approved the appointment of Otuaro as administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme last Thursday.

His appointment was announced by the special adviser to the president (Media and Publicity), Chief Ajuri Ngelale.

Otuaro holds a PhD in Comparative Politics & Development Studies; an MSc in Public Administration, and a BSc in Education.
