He said the people and groups spearheading the calls for the removal of Professor Dokubo are mainly fictitious and does not have the blueprint to do better in handling the programme stressing that majority of youths,ex militants and stakeholders of the Niger Delta have implicit confidence in the ability of Professor Dokubo to take PAP to the next level in line with the mantra of the Buhari administration.

According to Comrade Azazi “Professor Dokubo, a peace and conflict resolution expert through the Amnesty Programme has met the yearnings of youths who are currently undergoing various training exercises under the amnesty programme as he has shown capacity and commitment with the training and retraining of ex agitators for better empowerment within his one year and few days in office”.
