A socio-political group has appealed to President Muhammaudu Buhari to appoint his predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan as special envoy to Niger Delta.

 
In a statement released on Thursday in Benin, the National Coordinator of the Assembly of Concerned Niger Delta People (ACNDP), Eperemor Governor, has appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to appoint his predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan, as special envoy to Niger Delta.
 
The socio-political group, said the appointment will help to reduce the present hostility by the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA), which has been responsible for the blowing-up of oil installations in the region.
 
According to the group, as an indigene of the area and former governor of Bayelsa, the former president would help to bridge the gap between the region and the Federal Government.
 
The ACNDP cordinator condemned the spate of pipeline bombings by the avengers, adding that the bombings were not only affecting the nation economically but degradation the soil of the region.
 
He reminded the NDA that while the country was suffering the effect of their activities, the environment of the region they claimed to represent was also being destroyed, and urged members of the group to channel their grievances to appropriate authorities rather than destroying the country's commonwealth.
