Stakeholders in the Niger Delta region on Tuesday presented a 16-point demand to President Muhammadu Buhari on issues that bordered on the socio-economic development, security and restoration of peace in the region.

Chief Alfred Diete-Spiff, the Chairman of Bayelsa State Traditional Rulers’ Council, confirmed this development to State House correspondents in Abuja after the meeting between Buhari and stakeholders from the Niger Delta region.

According to him, the demands include the need to fast-track interventions on some of the regional infrastructure, Presidential Amnesty programme, law and justice issues and the effect of increased military presence in the Niger Delta.
