AMAONYE READY FOR PROGRESS AND BACKS GREENFIELD METALS LTD,. Dismissing Rivial Oppositionโ
The Amaonye community, in collaboration with Greenfield Metals, is poised to embark on a new era of development and prosperity. In 2013, under the leadership of Hon. Denis Ukpai, the Amaonye Amalokpa executives granted Greenfield Metals a license to mine lead deposits in Ekubara, Amaonye, following due process.
Despite a 12-year delay due to a land dispute with a neighboring community, Ihietutu, government findings confirmed the land belonged to Amaonye, paving the way for Greenfield Metals to commence operations. The company has made significant strides, including donating 50 street lights, grading roads, and constructing a new road to the mining site.
The community has overwhelmingly supported Greenfield Metals, with landlords identifying their land for the mining project. This unity is a testament to the community's desire for development and progress.
Unfortunately, a vocal minority has attempted to disrupt the project, resorting to violence and spreading misinformation. The community condemns these actions, which have resulted in the loss of life and property damage.
The Amaonye community stands united in support of Greenfield Metals, recognizing the company's commitment to responsible mining practices and community development. We urge all stakeholders to disregard baseless allegations and join us in welcoming this partnership, which promises a brighter future for Amaonye.
*Long live Amonye*
*Long live all the Hamlets in Amonye*
*God Bless Greenfield Metals Ltd*
