FG probes looting of Kaiama Amnesty trade centre vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta Affairs, Prof Charles Dokubo, who inaugurated the panel, headed by Brig-Gen. S. Songonuga , expressed regret that the multi-million centre which was meant to provide start-up facilities for the people of the Niger Delta, was not only vandalized but looted on the eve of its commissioning.
