The Dr. Dennis Otuaro-led Presidential Amnesty Office in charge of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, PAP, has cleared the stipends of beneficiaries for the month of March, 2024.

The Office made this known in a Press Statement titled 'March Stipends For Beneficiaries Have Been Paid, Amnesty Office Assures Delegates' and that was signed by its management and posted on its X (formerly Twitter) handle on Saturday, April 6.

The statement reads as follows:

"The Presidential Amnesty Office has said that it has paid the N65,000 Stipends for the month of March, 2024 to its beneficiaries.

"The Office said in a statement on Saturday that the stipends were paid to all the beneficiaries through their listed bank accounts within the week.

"The PAP stated that it has become necessary to provide this explanation in view of calls from delegates, inundating the office of non-payment or delay in the payment of the stipends.

"The Office explained that the apparent delay in receiving the credit alert for the payment for the month of March, 2024 might not be unconnected with glitches associated with some of the banks.

"It stressed further that it is the standard practice of the PAP to ensure that all such monies are paid to all delegates at the same time.

"The statement called on the beneficiaries and stakeholders to exercise patience as the affected financial institutions are dealing with this unforeseen development.

"The management noted that the office under the leadership of Dr. Dennis Otuaro, would do all to ensure prompt payment of stipends to beneficiaries.

"The statement assured that stipends of beneficiaries are not delayed even as the management counts on all delegates and stakeholders for support."
