Paul Boroh, the co-ordinator, Presidential Amnesty Programme, has appealed to the ex-militants in the Niger Delta region to bear government over the current delay to paid their stipends.

In a statement made available to CEOAFRICA on Friday, August 12, 2016, said that Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, was saddled with the responsibility of effecting the payments of stipends directly to the ex-agitators in region, in line with the Treasury Single Accounts, TSA.

He said that the Amnesty Office had been making efforts to ensure that the outstanding stipends were paid, and appealed to them to have faith in the payment process.

“I must recall that the TSA is a public accounting system under which all government revenue, receipts and income are collected into one single account.

“This account is usually maintained by the CBN and all payments are being done through this account as well; I am urging you all to have faith,” he said
