London, October 25, 2025
The Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Dr. Dennis Brutu Otuaro, has met with beneficiaries of the PAP scholarship scheme studying across various universities in the United Kingdom, urging them to pursue academic excellence and contribute meaningfully to national development.
During the interactive session, Dr. Otuaro reminded the students that their education is not just a personal privilege but a collective investment in the peace and progress of the Niger Delta region.
This scholarship is a trust — a seed of hope for your families and our communities. You must use this opportunity to learn, grow, and return home to make a difference. The future of the Niger Delta depends on the knowledge and values you bring back,”
Dr. Dennis Otuaro, PAP Administrator.
The meeting created an open platform for dialogue where students expressed appreciation for the renewed focus on welfare, mentorship, and career guidance under Dr. Otuaro’s leadership.
Reacting to the engagement, the National Chairman of the Third Phase Presidential Amnesty Programme, General Elaye ThankGod Dollar Slaboh, commended Dr. Otuaro’s leadership vision and his hands-on approach to youth empowerment.
Dr. Otuaro’s leadership style is inspiring. His direct interaction with our scholars abroad shows genuine commitment to human capital development. I urge all beneficiaries to capitalise on this rare opportunity — to acquire skills, build global networks, and return home ready to impact lives and sustain peace in the Niger Delta,”

General Slaboh further charged the beneficiaries to utilise this God-given opportunity to its fullest potential, emphasizing that such rare educational empowerment should translate into positive change for their communities and the region at large.
He reiterated that the Amnesty Programme remains a vital tool for peace and reintegration, and that education continues to be its most powerful weapon for lasting transformation in the Niger Delta.
The London session stands as another clear demonstration of the PAP’s renewed direction under Dr. Otuaro — one that prioritises education, mentorship, and leadership development as cornerstones of regional and national growth.
