The artisans of the Suame Magazine Industrial Zone are facing eviction threats from a private developer.
This situation has caused significant concern and unrest among the thousands of individuals who rely on this industrial hub for their livelihoods.
The dispute has escalated, with allegations of corruption and unfair practices against individuals involved in the land acquisition process.
The affected members have appealed to the Asantehene, Otumfour Osei Tutu II, and the Government of Ghana for intervention.
The artisans claim that the land is the property of the Ghana National Association of Garages (GNAG) and was allocated to them by the government.
They argue that the developer’s claims of ownership are unfounded and illegal.
The situation has created significant uncertainty and fear among the thousands of artisans, traders, and workers in the area.
The Suame Magazine Industrial Zone is a vital economic hub in the Ashanti Region, and its closure would have devastating consequences for the local community.
The affected members are calling for a fair and transparent resolution to the dispute.
They urge the authorities to protect their rights and ensure the continued operation of the industrial zone.
