George Amoh, the Executive Secretary of the National Peace Council (NPC), has appealed to the Government for relocation to a more suitable facility, citing security concerns and operational challenges.
He revealed that the Council faced a potential eviction after receiving two notices from the State Housing Company in 2023 and 2024.
Amoh made the appeal on Monday during a familiarisation visit by Mohammed Mubarak Muntaka, the Minister for the Interior, to the NPC in Accra. "As you can see for yourself, all the buildings around us have been pulled down.
We received two notices last year and the year before instructing us to vacate this place to make way for the redevelopment of the enclave," he said in a media briefing after the Minister's visit. "That is the situation we find ourselves in, and we do not feel secure here." Amoh noted that the current premises, which housed over 35 staff members, had experienced flooding on three occasions, and was unsuitable for the Council's peace-building work.
