Residents of Site Three at Tema in the Greater Accra Region have expressed anger and frustration over a demolition exercise being carried out by the Tema Development Company Limited (TDC), describing it as sudden, unfair, and executed without proper community consultation.
According to the residents, the TDC gave little to no prior notice before moving in to tear down structures, sparking confusion and distress among affected shop owners.
The company reportedly plans to construct new commercial stores on the cleared land, which will eventually be leased out.
The situation escalated when military personnel and task force members were deployed to the site to support the demolition.
