LANDGRAB: Chiefs Complicit, Governments Guilty

Thieves on all sides conspire to Loot Land as occurred in the Achimota Forest Landgrab, they sometimes steal lands independent of each other and even clash over stolen lands…

Goro-Boys of the Chiefs, Thiefs and Corrupt Government officials are the biggest beneficiaries as they change sides as governments change but maintain their Chief-Thief chieftaincy connections…

These Goro-Boys act as middlemen or liaison for the thieving Chiefs and their Corrupt Government counterparts, they eat from both sides, cut deals and even going on solo Land Looting sprees of their own…

In all this Land Looting, Ghana, Ghanaians and the Real Land Owners are the losers!

Proceeds of Corruption and Money Laundering are hidden in landed property and dubious Land transactions…

Chiefs are custodians of Stool Land, Presidents are Trustees of State Lands;

Chiefs as well as the President owe a Fiduciary duty to protect and preserve the Stool|State Lands on behalf of the People and must be held accountable for all Land transactions under their watch which must be transparent as per ACT 1036 or suffer prison terms or fines or both.

President John Agyekum Kufuor as Trustee of State Acquired Lands could not lawfully give Trust Property or State Lands to himself, his family, his appointees, his friends and business associates as occurred between 2006 – 2008 per records of the Lands Commission and Works & Housing Ministry…

The State must immediately retrieve all State Lands from Justice Sophia Akuffo as was done in the case of Justice Georgina Theodora Woode.

J.H. Mensa, Osafo Maafo, Sam Jonah, Nana Kwaku Duah, Zoomlion and the many other instant Millionaires created by fraudulently allocating them State|Stool Lands almost for free…

Justice Sophia Akuffo and several others paid appropriately GHc7000 for prime State|Stool Lands at the plush Cantonments, Labone, Ridge, Roman Ridge, Legon and Airport Residential areas…

Esi Gbedemah was recently allocated 52acres of prime Airport Hills land for the price of only 1acre;

This fraudulent transaction happened under the watch of Samuel Abu Jinapor as Lands Minister…

The Cantonments Civil Aviation Land is the locus classicus of Land Looting involving Chiefs, Government Officials and Goro-Boys;

The official complicity in the ongoing Land Looting is why the Lands Minister and Lands Commission cannot disclose the identity of the faceless thieves developing the Cantonments Civil Aviation Land.

If Government makes the mistake of listening to those who say Government should never return State Acquired Lands to the Original Land Owners in Accra, it will have great difficulty in acquiring Lands elsewhere…

The Kpletso Land Looting is a classic example of using Landguards in military uniforms to steal lands…

As the Ghana Armed Forces establish forward bases in the Northern Regions to ward off Potential terrorist attacks, the Military and Police are busily building tall walls around prime Lands including their barracks and offices…

Are these walls to help the Military and Police to lay claim on these walled Lands or to protect themselves from attacks?

Whose money is being used to build the walls around the Police Headquarters, Burma Camp and elsewhere?

Government never acquired these Lands being forcibly annexed by the Military, others whose Lands are being taken today in the name of the Military Forward Operating Bases must take a hard long look at Kpletso and how the Military is trying to add Land forcibly to the Original 37acre Giffard Camp now Burma Camp…

Ghanaians are resolved to be Citizens and not Spectators…

All Government officials, the Chiefs, Thieves and Goro-Boys involved in the Land Looting must be prosecuted to serve as deterrent to others.

Those busily pretending to be outraged by Sir John’s will, must look for Laurence Sackitey, Billy Wagus and Clemence Gyato…

God Save Our Homeland Ghana from the Cartels who connive to steal State|Stool Lands.
