made lightly as a government that
11:09
prioritizes the security and well-being
11:12
of our people we took decisive steps to
11:14
address this crisis by setting up a
11:16
seven-man committee under the leadership
11:19
of the revered Catholic bishop ameritus
11:21
of abakaliki dasis his lordship most
11:24
Reverend Dr Michael enoro retired this

the root causes of the conflict and
11:32
provided far-reaching recommendations to
11:34
restore peace based on its report the
11:38
aboni state government issued a white
11:40
paper that now serves as our road map to
11:42
reconciliation and sustainable peace one
11:45
of the key recommendations of this
11:47
report was the possibility of granting
11:49
amnesty to those directly affected by
11:51
the crisis with a structured framework
11:54
for disarmament Rehabilitation and
11:57
reintegration after careful consider

12:15
decision to Grant amnesty is rooted in
12:17
the principles of Justice tempered with

law must be upheld there is also room
12:25
for forgiveness and the opportunity for

from this amnesty are those whose
12:46
alleged offenses are directly connected
12:48
to the communal crisis they are not
12:51
being exonerated from accountability

communities and to the state at large
13:01
this amnesty is conditional upon their
