The issue of land guards systems in most parts of the country especially in Accra and its environs has recorded series of reports on their mode of operation in the country. Reports received and heard of them ranges from assaults, multiple selling of lands, demolishing of properties and in extreme cases been involved in murder.
A recent case of land guards activities reported on Starr FM confirms a group of them being involved in one of their dubious activities in Kasoa Peace Town, a suburb in Awutu East Municipality. The group is reported to have engaged in the unlawful demolition of a building undergoing construction together with some properties belonging to one Pastor Mark Akomeah.
According to Pastor Akomeah, the alleged land guards have been pestering him since 1995 and recently came around demanding a “digging fee” of 500 Cedis which he refused to pay. The victim’s unwillingness to succumb to their demands provoked these land guards to demolish the entire building.
“They requested digging fees and I refused because this building has been there since the year 2000 and there was no need for such payment. I was called by my tenants that they have demolished the building which was at lentil with frames fixed… I don’t know why they are doing this”. “Land guards have disrupted our lives since 1999 and it’s worrying. When will I get money to rebuild again?” he explained
The Pastor is therefore appealing to the Inspector General of the Police, Defence Minister and the President to put up measures to eradicate the activities of these acclaimed land guards at Kasoa. “We are appealing to Nana Addo to intervene else I am stuck. I cannot eat and they threatened to kill me if they had met me here”.
