Responding, the new KCMA Chairman, Engr. David Esimaje Oniyeburutan, pledged to harmonize all interests in Koko as well as strive towards attracting investors to the historical town.
Meanwhile, members of the taskforce set up by the new KCMA have reportedly been attacked by mercenaries purportedly hired by the former KCMA leadership led by Jerry Atigan.
