Landowners of PDL 2 in Kutubu, Southern Highlands Province, want an election for a new management for their Umbrella Company because the interim management appointed by the courts have not complied with court orders for an AGM to elect new members.
The 117 Incorporated Land Groups Chairman (ILG) of Namo’Aporo Landowners Association, who are direct beneficiaries of Kutubu Oil and PDL 2 of the LNG gas project, petitioned the interim management of the company to step down.
The landowners were overlooked by the management of their umbrella company from benefiting from their rightful shares received from Kutubu Oil for the last twenty years, including the recent multi-billion kina LNG project.
Sixty out of 117 ILG chairmen, who make up the Namo’Aporo Landowners Association, petitioned the chairmanship of John Kapi Natto and the management to step aside for not following the court order for a fresh election for the management of the company as per court order OS No 647 of 2010.
The Chairman for the Waunabo Sirigi ILG, Paul Yawe told Post-Courier in Kutubu that Mr Kapi and his management team had failed to conduct both the election and the annual general meeting as ordered by the National Court on February 13 and again on April 23.
“The Court appointed terms of the Interim Management of Namo’Aporo Landowners Association Inc which comprises of Mr Kapi as Chairman, Emma Atakaro as Vice Chairman, Roy Faso as Public Officer/Secretary and Peter Heno as Treasurer.
“But that has lapsed twice. The court ordered on February 13 for the election of the management committee on April 20, 2013, but that had failed. The court again allowed the interim management to run the company on April 23 until August 10, 2013 for a fresh election to be held to appoint the Management of Namo’Aporo Landowners Association Inc.
“They have failed to conduct an election on August 10, as Ordered by the Court proceedings OS No 647 of 2010, to elect the substantive Management Committee of Namo’Aporo Landowners Association Inc,” Mr Yawe explained.
He said: “Therefore, we, the sixty ILG chairmen call on the court not to re-appoint Mr Kapi and his interim management.”
