The meeting was attended by  its nine state coordinators and national executive members.

The Forum  also called for the retaining of the Amnesty boss in office to enable him successfully implement his creative initiatives such as loans to the beneficiaries.

The group opined that retaining the 
Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) boss would also enable the agency to positively impact on the lives of the youths as well as the ex-agitators.

Speaking shortly after the meeting, the President of the Ex-Agitators, His Royal Highness, Henry Binidodogha(aka Egbema 1), commended General Ndiomu for his consultative and engaging approach in relating with critical stakeholders of the region.

The traditional ruler noted that the consultative and engaging approach has created an atmosphere for peace in the Niger Delta region. 

He, however, called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu and the Chairman Senate Committee on Niger Delta, Senator Bari Mpigi not to allow politicians to politicize the office because it's a security programme.

He also advocated that more funds should be allocated to the programme to enable the beneficiaries to be self independent.
