GOV’T TO CRACK DOWN ON SALE OF SOESDYKE LINDEN HIGHWAY LEASES

The government will soon crack down on the sale of land leases on the Soesdyke/ Linden Highway, President Dr. Irfaan Ali announced on Monday. The President went to Base Road, Timehri to distribute over 400 land titles on Monday. While there, he urged the residents to keep those titles since the value of the land there is expected to increase significantly in coming years with planned developments nearby. And he flagged the ongoing practice of selling leases as opposed to using the land for productive purposes.
