Yarkpa Town, River Cess County - The waiver of an earthmover to a Chinese contractor working on a farm-to-market road in the township Yarkpa Town in River Cess is locking the heads of current and former local officials, with tension brewing in the south-central county. The court has since annulled the waiver and has ordered the Chinese firm to return the controversial earthmover. “It is not approved by the River Cess people." That was River Cess first project after the County Development Fund was introduced. Unfortunately, the company abandoned the project halfway on, leaving back the earthmover, which has been a constant feature of that part of the county.
