Minister shocked as 368 acres of government land is stolen

About the land size of 368 acres land that was acquired by the government at Medie in the Ga West Municipality of the Greater Accra Region has been stolen.

Deputy Minister of Local Government and Rural Development, Hon Martin Adjei-Mensah Korsah was shocked at the development during a working visit to the area on Tuesday as part of a tour of the Greater Accra Region.

According to him, only two acres out of the over 368 acres of land were readily available at the time of the visit as the other had been sold to private individuals by persons the ministry is yet to fish out.

“A government acquired land size of 368 acres has been so encroached leaving only 2 acres. Private individuals have acquired large tracts and fenced them for future use. One such developer has fenced 50 plots of land as part of the encroached portion”, he disclosed

The story was not different at Prampram where the Chiefs prayed government to hasten with efforts at reclaiming the encroached lands. The queen mother of Prampram volunteered to go round with the Deputy Minister and his entourage to see the encroached areas and also pleaded strongly that government acts to stop the menace.

Meanwhile, Assemblies in whose jurisdiction such encroachment is taking place have been charged to stop any development from being done immediately by the Ministry. The Ministry will move in to demolish such structures soon.

Meanwhile, the Ministry has charged all MMDAS in the affected areas to halt such developments pending further action by the Ministry.

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed. To the Youth especially, leaders in their part of the country have failed them after years of exploiting them for their own interest. They say they will advise themselves if nothing is done ab...
