Chief of Staff directs ecological restoration of reclaimed Kpeshie Lagoon

The directive follows the removal of illegal structures within the protected buffer zone of the wetland as part of government’s ongoing efforts to restore flood-control infrastructure and protect critical water-retention areas across the Greater Accra Region.

The restoration forms part of broader efforts to protect wetlands, improve flood-control systems and strengthen Greater Accra’s resilience to flooding.

Deputy Chief of Staff in charge of Operations, Stan Xoese Dogbe, has directed the Greater Accra Regional Coordinating Council (GARCC) to commence the ecological restoration of reclaimed sections of the Kpeshie Lagoon.
