Yamfo youth and some affected farmers calling for Otumfuo\u2019s intervention<\/strong><\/p>\n

Residents
\nof Yamfo in Tano North Municipality of the Ahafo Region have called on the
\nAsantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to intervene in a land litigation case
\nbetween the Yamfo Traditional Council and Duayaw Nkwanta Traditional Council. <\/p>\n

The
\nresidents claimed the situation had stalled development of the area. According
\nto the youth, including farmers affected by the situation, the continuous
\nlitigation over the rightful owner of a concession allocated to Newmont Ghana Gold
\nLimited for exploration and mining had rendered the youth jobless.<\/p>\n

At press a briefing on Tuesday,
\nthe Spokesperson for the affected farmers, Emmanuel Gyamfi, said because of
\ncompensations and royalties from the mining giant, each traditional council had
\ntaken an entrenched position on the matter to the detriment of the people.<\/p>\n

According to Mr. Gyamfi, when the
\ncompany begins operations, the youth in Yamfo and its environs will get jobs to
\ndo and the affected farmers will also receive their compensation.<\/p>\n

He appealed to the Overload of
\nthe area, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, to intervene and settle the issue quickly for
\noperations to begin for them to also find jobs. He said the affected
\ncommunities included Yamfo, Sosuanso, Techire and Adrogba.<\/p>\n

He claimed Newmont had promised to establish a factory to create employment avenues in addition to those who would be employed by the company.<\/p>\n
