Scores of Sierra Leonean refugees have been displaced in Takoradi in the Western region after their home was demolished.

The Sierra Leoneans acquired the property when they relocated to Ghana in the late 1990s.

A court ordered the destruction of the property to repay a loan reportedly secured by their mother from an acquaintance.

The Sierra Leoneans are, however, crying foul over the handling of their petition to the Chief Justice to overturn the court order.

Spokesperson for the group Daniel Tahiru Cole told Starr News an injustice is being perpetuated against them.

“ I can never stand and watch this injustice that is going on. They have come to pull the property down telling me that I can send this case to anywhere that I like, but I know that justice in Ghana will prevail through the chief Justice” .
