The Federal Government will implement all the recommendations of the proposed Niger Delta Summit, Vice President Goodluck Jonathan, said in Abuja yesterday.

Dr. Jonathan made the remarks while addressing a delegation of the Rivers State Truth and Reconciliation Commission, led by Justice Kayode Eso, in his office, at State House.

According to him, "the Niger Delta Summit will achieve clear results. President Umar Yar'Adua is totally committed to bringing lasting peace to the region, hence, there will be a commitment on the part of the Federal Government and all recommendations at the Summit will be carried out to the letter."

The vice president said the government would ensure the safety of those testifying before the Justice Eso commission and pledged amnesty for any indicted offender willing to make amends.

He commended Governor Rotimi Amechi for setting up the commission, noting, "as a former Speaker in the last administration and now a sitting governor, it must have taken courage to set up this commission. This shows a great commitment on the part of the governor to see to the end of the crisis in Rivers State."

Earlier, Justice Eso had said that the commission moved to the Federal Capital, Abuja, in continuation of its sitting "to take evidence of some of the people who have expressed concerns for their safety."
