Farmers appeal for COCOBOD’s intervention in land dispute

He alleged that the Chief of Dunkwa, Nana Obeng Nuakoh III, had recently sold the cocoa farms to private estate developers without consulting the affected farmers or engaging them in prior negotiations.

Mr Samuel Ofori, a spokesperson for the affected farmers, said successive generations had inherited the farms and depended on cocoa production as their main source of livelihood.
