ABSTRACT
Oil producing communities of Nigeria known as the Niger Delta region has been a region characterized with fierce violent conflict for more than a decade. The conflict is between successive Nigerian governments and their collaborating oil companies, and militant groups from the region. The core issue in the conflict are the social –economic deprivations and denial of resource control which were occasioned by corporate malfeasance and indifference of successive Nigerian Government to the plight , demands and aspirations of the people of the region. The Nigerian government who first aggravated the violent conflict in the region through the use of violent repression as an anti-protest measure however proposed an amnesty policy in June 2009 as a non-violent measure to address the crisis in the region. The policy aimed solely at disarming, rehabilitating and reintegrating the militants into the Nigerian society. The implementation of the policy brought a relative peace to the long troubled region for the first time, with the seeming compliance of the militants. This study however seeks to evaluate the management of the amnesty policy. In the process of carrying out this study, 220 questionnaires were distributed and 200 were retuned as valid.
The study revealed that a large number of respondent lauded the for formation and implementation of the amnesty policy but faulted the implementation and management process. Thus, the study argued that more attention should be focused on the management process to enable it achieve its desired goals and objectives of rehabilitating and reintegrating the ex-agitators.
The study also suggested that the Federal government should provide the needed facilities and the basic essentials of life for the people of the region whose lack is the root cause of the crisis.
