The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Ms Linda Obenewaa Akweley Ocloo, yesterday caused the demolition of walls and buildings in the Ramsar Site at Sakumono in Tema.
This followed a visit to the area to ascertain the state of the Ramsar Site for remedial measures to restore the ecology.
The Minister was accompanied on the tour by representatives of the Tema Development Council (TDC) Ghana Limited and the National Security, to access the state of the Ramsar Site.
When the Regional Minister got to the site, it was observed that new structures and walls had been erected by building contractors who have encroached on the site despite the prior notice given to them not to build on the land.
