Samuel Abu Jinapor must make all the Achimota Forest Lands documents public and stop the “I have in my hands, I have in my hands…” thrash talk on Asempa FM.
Ghanaians can read and analyse the official documents for themselves.
Ghanaians are not interested in the comparison of what someone else did, which was not consummated for whatever reason, as justification for the current Create, Loot and Share Landgrab…
The Cantonments Civil Aviation Land is a good example of how the Akufo-Addo government is actively grabbing State Land.
There is abundance of evidence of members of successive Governments grabbing State acquired Lands for themselves and their cronies…
President Kufuor’s administration has the most well documented cases of such fraudulently allocated State Lands to beneficiaries including two (2) Chief Justices and several judges, a Speaker of Parliament and several MPs, Cabinet Secretary and several Ministers thus compromising all three Arms of government, an IGP and security chiefs, journalists, Civil Society and Chiefs, diplomats and embassies, multinational and local companies…
So widespread was the Looting that, whilst one President acted in the interest of the State another President did not;
President Atta-Mills when he received an Article 146 Petition for the removal of Chief Justice Georgina Woode stopped her, together with some state actors and cronies who had been fraudulently allocated the International Students Hostel at Airport area and returned the looted land to the State, which was used to build the office of the Foreign Affairs Ministry office complex.
President Akufo-Addo received an Article 146 Petition for the removal of Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo, but refused to act on the Petition for two (2) years until she retired on her 70th birthday.
Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo paid GHc7000 for prime Cantonments State Land worth millions…
The Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta has been accused by the GBC Workers Association of stealing and sharing prime Airport Lands acquired by the State for GRA and is trying to swap it for GBC Lands.
Kennedy Agyepong accused Stephen Ntim of stealing and selling Aviation, CSIR and other prime lands whist he was the head of the Lands Commission…
The allegations have been very many, yet the few investigations and reports of findings very scanty; the most recent being the denial of the Ghana Police that the First Lady Rebecca Akufo-Addo had taken portions of the disputed Cantonments Civil Aviation Land without giving the details of those who found to have stolen the Cantonments Civil Aviation Land which is currently being developed despite the claim by the Lands Minister that he has ordered a stoppage of construction work.
IT IS TIME FOR TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY AND FULL DISCLOSURE ON ALL STATE ACQUIRED LAND.
Nobody trusts the Lands Minister, Lands Commission and the Land Looters.
Samuel Abu Jinapor jettisoned and restarted work done by his predecessor on the Kpletso Lands claiming he did not trust the previous work;
yet Samuel Abu Jinapor claimed he trusts completely the work done on the Achimota Forest today…
A comprehensive investigation of the recent Esi Gbedemah allocation of 50acres of prime Airport Hills land will be an eye-opener to Ghanaians on the level of corruption, money Laundering and hiding of proceeds of corruption inherent in Land transactions in Ghana.
Ghanaians are resolved to be Citizens and not Spectators.
God Save Our Homeland Ghana.
