In addition, he said the Government has refused to disburse the County Development Fund (CDF) in the tune of US$800,000 appropriated in the national budget. The situation, he said is undermining the implementation of several development projects in the county. In the agreement, the company made a commitment to pay US$3 million to the three affected counties including Bong, Grand Bassa and Nimba Counties. And of this amount, US$1.5million was apportioned to Nimba as the most effected county. His request was granted, and the House voted in favor of a motion proffered by fellow Nimba County lawmaker Jeremiah Koung citing Minister Tweah this Thursday, July 2, 2020.
