Migrant farmers who voluntarily relocated from Okomu Oil Palm's Extension One concession in Ovia Southwest LGA of Edo State are now beneficiaries of varying sums of money to re-establish their livelihoods.
The farmers used to occupy three camps namely; Sunday Camp, Olomu Camp and Oluwo Camp. At the final disengagement ceremony held on Tuesday, 13 August 2013, the company disbursed a total sum of N11.5 million to the 140 farmers involved. Depending on their holdings, the farmers collected a once off ex-gratia payment varying from N30 000 to N260 000.
