Unfortunately, all his curses are null and void and without cause and nullified once the old man is in breach of the law!
The process was inhumaine ok
@Black wicked, what else would you have done after several warnings to them not to build in the area. The only solution now is to pull down the illegal structures, this can not be said to be an inhumane process. You can not b ...

Some people know the right thing to do but they will not do it. The man is fully aware the place is not meant for buildings, but he went ahead to do so. I think some Ghanaians are also to be blamed for the worsening indiscipl ...

So why will the agencies responsible for town planning and the forestry department allow people to start and complete their building projects then they come and pull them down.
exactly. all the agencies will take money from you and make you feel, you are doing the right thing.
Greed + corruption =misery

I bet that old man is an Asante?
Go back to Hwidiem and farm! You these uncouth forest dwellers are too lawless
The man spoke Ga first, severally and fluently, to the boy/men restraining him, then he spoke in English, and then Twi. What does that make him, English?
Only Asantes behave in that entitled way!
The town planning and building inspectors in that area must be persecuted for allowing such buildings carried on
Amazing; now Asantes can speak English and Ga. Who would have “thunk” that?
I can't really understand, where are the authorities when these people started to build?,who sold the place for them ?, where did they get permit ? So the only solutions is to demolition?....in fact, who ever Orchestrated thi ...

Good question! I was trained as a planner in Ghana (a KNUST planning graduate). The planning law in Ghana does NOT permit the demolition of a completed building. Hence it’s illegal for the so called authorities to demolish ...

That planning law needs repealing: it is part of the bases for our woes. The strategy is to build/complete fast, even on waterways and the state can do foko. How does that help us?
Until repealed, it remains the Law.
The demolished property owners must Sue the authorities.
@ Prof USA, please go and speak to Nana Addo who demolished over 50 good solid buildings in Ridge, Accra in order to build the Cathedral he had seen in his dreams. 8 years came and passed ….
Unless not sanctioned by a court of competent jurisdiction, no demolition or eviction is carried out without prior notice. Many have resorted to ;I was not informed and what have you' but this won't work. Such encroachers, il ...

If it's the rainy season and you're demolishing people's property, then you're lost. Your attention should be on the plastic and rubbish waste in the city, especially those clogging the gutters. Leave people in peace. You peo ...

Nonsense! Does he realize the damage his illegal construction has caused innocent people through flooding? No sympathy for this idiot. Security Services, carry on with the demolitions.
All those who issued the Building Permits to them should be quickly arrested and prosecuted to deter other fraudulent people at the various Assemblies from doing so in the future. Ghana is gradually becoming a lawless country ...

Blame the Accra chiefs who are selling the illegal lands to the people.
Yes, we also have to blame the chiefs in the galamsey areas for colluding with galamsey kingpins to destroy the country.
