The Administrator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Dr Dennis Otuaro, while speaking during a visit to the scholarship students of the scheme at the Edwin Clark University, Kiagbodo, the Western Delta University, Oghara, and the Michael and Cecilia Ibru University, Agbarha-Otor, all in Delta State, also charged them to intensify efforts to sustain their record of academic excellence in the universities.

Otuaro, who had earlier visited PAP scholarship students at the Igbinedion University Okada, and Benson Idahosa University Benin, all in Edo State, as part of his tour of partnering institutions to interact with the managements and the students, said he was inundated with the beautiful record of academic performance by students under the PAP scholarship scheme, adding that the positive reports would only encourage the government to do more to invest in human capacity development.
