Nanok faults State on plan to pay out 516 landowners in Turkana oil fields

Turkana Governor Josphat Nanok has opposed the planned payout to 516 landowners of oil fields to pave way for the construction of a crude pipeline and processing facility

The State, through the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining, had received what was termed as a clearer plan for oil production in South Lokichar Basin from British exploration firm Tullow, wrapping up a more than two-year process since a gazette notice was issued in February 2019.
