The two conditions for amnesty are:
1. Any amnesty can only apply to terrorists who have no blood on their hands and have never raped.
2. Any amnesty must never include remuneration in any form whatsoever.
Not repeating prior blunder: while the necessity for urgent address is recognized in the then Yar’Adua government’s decision to offer an amnesty to the Niger Delta terrorists, the blunder of that project is also now well realized.
