Comment on displacement of people
Several farmers have been evicted. The farmers wanted the land which another investor abandoned but this land was granted to a new investor. According to the Director of Monitoring, Evaluation and Local Community (june, 2024), 2000 people were actually displaced for the installation of the investment project and 1200 people were displaced only from their agricultural fields.
