Twelve landlords at Kasoa whose buildings were affected by the construction of the Mallam/Kasoa highway have refused to collect the balance of their compensations totaling about ¢1.4 billion.The landlords, who have already collected some of the amount, fear that as soon as they collect the money their buildings would be demolished.The amount, ranging from 40,976,000 cedis to 323,900,000 cedis, represents the final settlement of the compensation.Mr Solomon Kwashie Abbam-Quaye, the District Chief Executive for Awutu-Effutu-Senya, says efforts to get the landlords to collect the money had proved futile and that their refusal to go for the money was delaying the final phase of the work at Kasoa.He appealed to the landlords to go for the money immediately because the Ghana Highways Authority in collaboration with his office would soon embark on the final demolishing exercise.Mr Abbam-Quaye said government would use part of the compensations of recalcitrant landlords to pay for the cost of the demolition exercise.Source GNA
