        &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lagos/Warri/Asaba — Seven days to the deadline for militants to drop their arms and accept amnesty, Abuja at the weekend warned that none would be treated with mercy after October 4.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Defence Minister and Amnesty Panel Chairman, Godwin Abbe, has reportedly foreclosed extending the deadline, as requested by some militant leaders.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A source in Aso Rock said unrepentant militants would be treated like criminals once the amnesty expires.&lt;/p&gt;
