00:10:29,720 –> 00:10:33,200
crisis between Efium and Ezerefhium has been a dark chapter
161
00:10:33,320 –> 00:10:36,759
in our history, a chapter that has caused pain, loss
162
00:10:36,960 –> 00:10:40,080
and division. It is a chapter we are determined to
163
00:10:40,120 –> 00:10:44,480
close not with bitterness, but with compassion, justice, and of
164
00:10:44,559 –> 00:10:48,320
firm commitment to lasting peace. In the exercise of the
165
00:10:48,399 –> 00:10:51,519
powers conferred on me by the Constitution of the Federal
166
00:10:51,559 –> 00:10:55,080
Republic of Nigeria and As the chief Security Officer of
167
00:10:55,120 –> 00:10:57,799
our great state, I stand before you to day to
168
00:10:57,799 –> 00:11:00,480
announce the granting of amnesty to one one hundred and
169
00:11:00,559 –> 00:11:03,720
fifty nine detainees who have been held in connection with
170
00:11:03,799 –> 00:11:07,559
the Effium and as a Efium crisis. This decision is
171
00:11:07,639 –> 00:11:11,480
not made lightly. As a government that prioritizes the security
172
00:11:11,519 –> 00:11:14,679
and well being of our people, we took decisive steps
173
00:11:14,720 –> 00:11:17,679
to address this crisis by setting up a seven man
174
00:11:17,679 –> 00:11:21,480
committee under the leadership of the revered Catholic Bishop Emeritus
175
00:11:21,480 –> 00:11:27,519
of Aberclichi Diocese. His lordship, Most Reverend Doctor Michael Enacoro retired.
176
00:11:28,320 –> 00:11:31,639
This committee worked assiduously to uncover the root causes of
177
00:11:31,679 –> 00:11:35,600
the conflict and provided far reaching recommendations to restore peace.
178
00:11:36,399 –> 00:11:39,879
Based on its report, the Abonne State government issued a
179
00:11:39,879 –> 00:11:42,399
white paper that now serves as our road map to
180
00:11:42,480 –> 00:11:47,080
reconciliation and sustainable peace. One of the key recommendations of
181
00:11:47,120 –> 00:11:50,480
this report was the possibility of granting amnesty to those
182
00:11:50,600 –> 00:11:54,879
directly affected by the crisis with a structured framework for disarmament,
183
00:11:55,120 –> 00:12:00,759
rehabilitation and reintegration. After careful consideration and death ue diligence
184
00:12:00,879 –> 00:12:03,720
by the Peace Committee on the implementation of the government
185
00:12:03,799 –> 00:12:06,919
white paper. I am pleased to reaffirm our commitment to
186
00:12:06,960 –> 00:12:11,440
granting amnesty to our people. Ladies and gentlemen, The path
187
00:12:11,480 –> 00:12:15,840
to peace is often paved with difficult choices. Today’s decision
188
00:12:15,879 –> 00:12:19,039
to grant amnesty is rooted in the principles of justice
189
00:12:19,080 –> 00:12:22,879
tempered with mercy. It is a recognition that while the
190
00:12:22,960 –> 00:12:26,279
law must be upheld, there is also room for forgiveness
191
00:12:26,279 –> 00:12:30,720
and the opportunity for redemption for the detainees. We understand
192
00:12:30,759 –> 00:12:34,240
that years of conflict and incarceration may have left scars,
193
00:12:34,559 –> 00:12:37,159
but let this amnesty mark the dawn of a new chapter,
194
00:12:37,600 –> 00:12:43,080
one that is defined by hope, personal growth, and communal harmony. Meanwhile,
195
00:12:43,360 –> 00:12:46,200
the detainees who will benefit from this amnesty are those
196
00:12:46,240 –> 00:12:50,480
whose alleged offenses are directly connected to the communal crisis.
197
00:12:50,879 –> 00:12:55,080
They are not being exonerated from accountability. Rather, they are
198
00:12:55,080 –> 00:12:58,279
being given a second chance to contribute positively to their
199
00:12:58,360 –> 00:13:02,000
communities and to the state of life. This amnesty is
200
00:13:02,080 –> 00:13:06,320
conditional upon their commitment to peace, their willingness to renounce violence,
201
00:13:06,639 –> 00:13:10,200
and their active participation in the rehabilitation programs that will
202
00:13:10,240 –> 00:13:14,000
be put in place. To the people of Effium and Ezerefium.
203
00:13:14,360 –> 00:13:17,159
I say this, the grant of amnesty is not the
204
00:13:17,279 –> 00:13:19,440
end of the road. It is the beginning of a
205
00:13:19,480 –> 00:13:23,720
new chapter. It is a call to collective responsibility, a
206
00:13:23,799 –> 00:13:27,159
call to lay down your arms, to embrace dialogue, and
207
00:13:27,200 –> 00:13:31,120
to work together to rebuild your communities. The government will
208
00:13:31,159 –> 00:13:34,960
continue to support you, but the ultimate responsibility for peace
209
00:13:35,039 –> 00:13:38,279
lies in your hands. To the detainees who will be
210
00:13:38,320 –> 00:13:41,519
released today. I urge you to seize this opportunity to
211
00:13:41,559 –> 00:13:44,679
turn a new leaf. You have been given a chance
212
00:13:44,720 –> 00:13:48,960
to rewrite your story, a story of peace, productivity and
213
00:13:49,080 –> 00:13:55,039
positive contribution to society. Do not take this privilege for granted. Furthermore,
214
00:13:55,360 –> 00:13:58,440

overriding public interest. Three. Protection of the Forest Reserve. The

00:14:43,279 –> 00:14:47,360
Commitment to peace. Both stakeholders of Efium and Ezerefium have

signed an undertaking that there will be no relapse into
227
00:14:50,320 –> 00:14:54,080
war in Efium community arising from the release of detainees.
228
00:14:54,879 –> 00:14:57,840
Let me be clear, this amnesty is not a reward
229
00:14:57,919 –> 00:15:02,159
for wrongdoing. It is a stritchrategic step toward achieving lasting
230
00:15:02,240 –> 00:15:05,679
peace and stability in Ethium, ez are Efium and across

00:15:05,720 –> 00:15:09,759
a Bonnie State. The government remains committed to implementing the
232
00:15:09,840 –> 00:15:15,200
recommendations of the White Paper, including disarmament, rehabilitation and the
233
00:15:15,240 –> 00:15:20,000
promotion of socioeconomic development in the affected communities. We will
234
00:15:20,039 –> 00:15:24,559
continue to work with community leaders, religious institutions and all
235
00:15:24,600 –> 00:15:27,559
stakeholders to ensure that the root causes of the crisis
236
00:15:27,559 –> 00:15:32,399
are addressed. We will invest in education, skill acquisition and
237
00:15:32,559 –> 00:15:36,519
infrastructure to create an environment where peace can thrive. To
238
00:15:36,600 –> 00:15:39,559
the families of those who have lost loved ones, to
239
00:15:39,639 –> 00:15:42,039
