The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Linda Ocloo, has announced that the government will soon begin demolishing unauthorized structures on the Sakumono Ramsar site and buildings erected on waterways in Tema and surrounding communities.
This decision, she revealed, stems from a directive by President John Dramani Mahama issued last Thursday, as part of renewed efforts to tackle the recurring problem of flooding in Accra.
Speaking at a media briefing, Minister Ocloo stated that the demolitions will commence after the confirmation of new Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) in the region. "This time, there will be no exceptions.
We have all witnessed the consequences.
