The signing ceremony for the agreement is scheduled to take place today, June 13th, 2023.
The landowners argue that the FMA infringes upon their rights and have garnered the support of Pomio Member of Parliament, Elias Kapavore.
In a letter addressed to the relevant authorities, Kapavore highlighted the concerns raised by the landowners from the Melkoi Local Level Government (LLG) in Pomio District and the Gasmata LLG in Kandrian Gloucester District.
He stressed the importance of excluding the local forest areas from the proposed Ania Kapiura Fulleborne FMA.
