Great to seem the company improving lives of the locals. Very happy to read the following
One of the affected villagers, Mr Thabani Nyathi of Pioneer Village 2, said he was happy with relocation arrangements.
“We’ve held meetings with the Ministry of Lands officials, Environment Management Agency (EMA), councillors and the district administrator explaining the situation.
“A new place has been identified for us. Premier African Minerals people have promised to build houses for us comprising a kitchen, toilets and a three-roomed house,” he said.
“They pledged to assist us with farming, supply us with one tonne of maize monthly allowances till the end of the year.
“Children of school-going age would also be assisted until they reach 21 years.
“Personally, I’m happy with the pledges made, we cannot block development in our area. Most of us are struggling to pay schools fees for our children and this is a huge relief for us.”
