Gen. Boroh (Rtd) had on assumption of office promised to make remarkable impact in execution of the amnesty projects in the bid to resolving all contentious issues regarding the administration of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, most of which revolved around payment of in-training allowances and the fees of student trainees
under the programme.

He assured trainees that his office is keen on ensuring regular payment of allowances and other entitlements and working with relevant agencies of government to curb delays in the release of funds occasioned by the recent implementation of the Treasury Single Account Policy of the Federal Government.

The statement adds that the Coordinator is vigorously pursuing partnerships with National and International groups to consolidate the Re-integration component of the Amnesty Programme.
