Joseph Nelson, Western Regional Minister, has warned against human activities encroaching on the land belonging to Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) at its treatment site at Daboase in the Wassa East District.
Consequently, the Minister has ordered Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) to urgently demarcate the buffer zone at the Daboase treatment plant site to halt these negative human activities threatening the land within the demarcated area.
The move, he says, aims at protecting the seventy million euro (£70m) water expansion project currently being undertaken to supply twenty two (22) million gallons of water per day to Sekondi-Takoradi and its surrounding communities.
According to the Minister, despite the visible encroachment taking place, landowners are claiming to know virtually nothing about these bizarre development.
