Huhu Local Level Government

Alotau MP, Charles Abel, said this is an important principle in taking back PNG.

He made the remarks during the opening of the new Alotau Town Market and Fisheries Facility.

During the opening it was announced that that ownership of market will be handed over to the traditional landowners of Alotau through the Huhu Local Level Government (LLG).

Alotau MP Charles Abel says this is a principle hey have stood by.

The Council will be set up under the youth program for the provincial community development division.

Provincial youth coordinator Vicky Wesley says the ultimate aim is to establish a mother body for Huhu LLG, which consists of 29 wards, including Ahioma and Nigila.

Under this program, they have been organising youths to surrender homemade guns and homebrew equipment.

The youths of Ahioma and Nigila took the first step to surrender their items last week to police.
