Samuel Awuku, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Akuapim North, has categorically denied being one of the beneficiaries of a massive tract of land belonging to the Nungua Livestock Breeding Station along the Tema Motorway in the Tema West Municipality.
The land has been taken over by private developers, particularly politicians who demolished state properties, including agricultural workers' bungalows.
A long list of (NPP) officials and apparatchiks have been mentioned as beneficiaries of the state land, also known as the Animal Husbandry Lands at Borteyman near Ashaiman, which falls under the Ministry of Food and Agriculture.
The issue came to light, when the Minister of Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, visited the lands recently as part of a familiarisation tour of institutions under his ministry moments after assuming office and witnessed the private developers demolish workers' bungalows.
