The government of Ghana has given a 21-day ultimatum to individuals occupying state lands belonging to the Ministry of Food and Agriculture and the Ministry of Fisheries and Aquaculture Development at Osu in the Greater Accra Region to vacate the premises.
According to Clemence Gyato, a government-appointed consultant tasked with reclaiming encroached state lands, the area was originally allocated to drivers of the two ministries as residential quarters.
However, after the drivers vacated, the land was taken over by unauthorized occupants.
On Monday, July 14, 2025, Gyato, accompanied by a team of security officials, stormed the premises to distribute the official notices to residents. "This is government property, and it was never meant for private occupation.
