The Government of Liberia has acknowledged its indebtedness to residents in Compound #3 of the Liberia Agriculture Company (LAC) concession area in Grand Bassa County and has promised an amicable settlement. "We have the names of all the affected persons, and from the documents I've received, the government owes you a little more than US$ 200,000," Dr. Nuetah said. Residents in the LAC concession area complained that LAC encroached on their land, uprooted crops, and made limited or no payment for the damage. Deputy Grand Zoe of Grand Bassa County, Thompson Zuagar, presented their plight and warned that citizens had been planning unspecified actions in response. Dr. Nuetah pledged to communicate the government's position within 30 days.
