Spokesperson Andy Hamaga, in highlighting some of the main points included in the petition, has called for the 4.27 percent equity to be given to the landowners free of charge.
They have opposed the idea of a beneficiary group – that includes the five provincial governments – to seek and buy those shares on behalf of them.
They claim the National Executive Council has charged them one billion US dollars to buy back those shares and this is too expensive for them to meet.
They therefore want that equity, now being held by Kumul Petroleum, to be given to them free.
