The Nii Okantsuru family of Adenta La in the Adentan municipality here in Accra is calling on the government to, as a matter of urgency, intervene in a matter of land guards encroaching and terrorizing them on their land.

According to them, the family has been battling these encroachments and intimidations since 2006.

Addressing the media at a press conference, the spokesperson for the family, Nii Adjetey Okantsuru, disclosed that although the encroachment started in 2006, the situation got worse in 2018 when a notorious land guard by the name of Vandam and his gang, allegedly supported by a self-acclaimed chief with political connections, began to visit mayhem upon them.

The family further alleged that the said land guard and his team are involved in the training of other land guards who are terrorizing the Nii Okantsuru family and persons who purchased lands from them.
