KUKU: THE SILENT ACHIEVER...!




Hmmm! This MAN, Hon KINGSLEY KEMEBRADIGHA KUKU is one that can be termed a "SILENT ACHIEVER" though Silent as the title may denote but his Actions & Strides speaks Volumes of his Positive Achievements & Feats in the former WAR turn Zone which hostilities crippled the Nigerian Economy and the Global World Market.

His achievements could be traced to the braveness he portrayed during the Militants hostilities in the Region. It couldn be recalled that Hon. Kuku alongside other well meaning Nigerians visited the CREEKS on several occasions all in a bid foster a lasting PEACE and Solidarity.

KUKU, as he is fondly called by Friends and close associates has always portrayed and sustained a Legacy for better Co-existence amongst the Youths.

The relative Peace in the entire Niger Delta Region, has undoubtedly been the result of the sustained and diligent implementation of the Federal Government's AMNESTY PROGRAMME for former Militant Youths in the Region. Hon KINGSLEY KEMEBRADIGHA KUKU, Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta Affairs and Chairman of the PRESIDENTIAL AMNESTY OFFICE will for ever be remembered by posterity for very ably steering the programme – refocusing the youth on constructive life, improving human safety in the region and boosting the economic fortunes of the nation.
The Niger Delta Amnesty Programme which began as an off-shoot package of the presidential pardon granted to Niger Delta militants through a proclamation by then President Umaru Yar'Adua on 29 June 2009. The programme offered transformation training and skills acquisition opportunities for any militants who laid down their arms.
The Presidential Amnesty Office chaired by the Special Adviser to the President on the Niger Delta was mandated to administer the disarmament, demobilization, rehabilitation and reintegration of the ex-militants, as a pre-condition for medium and long term development in the Niger Delta. Specifically, the Office was to groom the 26,365 ex-militants who accepted the offer of amnesty in 2009, to become key players in the emerging economies of the Niger Delta.
