The Special Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan on Niger Delta and Chairman of the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP), Hon. Kingsley Kuku, has been awarded by the State of Georgia in the United States as one of the recipients of its honorary citizenship.
In a letter communicating the honour to Kuku, the State of Georgia hinged its recognition on Kuku’s efforts for a peaceful and prosperous Niger Delta and Nigeria.
“The Commendation and honour from the State of Georgia is in recognition of your unrivalled contribution to Nigeria’s socioeconomic growth and development, leading the Presidential Amnesty Program transparently and undertaken monumental projects that have contributed immensely towards reforming the ex-agitators and contributing manpower to the Oil & Gas, aviation, logistics and other services industry in Nigeria and Africa at large.
The congressional Black Caucus of the Georgia senate and the Government of the State of Georgia in their resolve to continue to support our efforts at rewarding excellence, innovation, and development in Africa, has therefore accepted to honour you as an epitome of excellence, with the Congressional Commendation Award and the Honorary Citizenship of the State of Georgia respectively, which is the highest award reserved for visiting Heads of government, Business Leaders, Diplomatic Leaders and those deemed to have contributed to a worthy cause."
The Congressional Commendation Award was presented by the Leadership of Georgia Legislative Assembly, while the Secretary of the State of Georgia, Mr. Brain P. Kemp, also presented him with the Honorary Citizenship of the state of Georgia.
Dignitaries in attendance were the Executive Governor of Georgia, Mr. Nathan Deal, Nigerian Ambassador to the United States, Professor Ade Adefuye, the foremost civil rights activist and one time presidential hopeful in the United States, Rev. Jesse Jackson, amongst other political, business and diplomatic leaders.
