Liberian refugees living in Ghana will lose their status by June next year. The decision which is being implemented by the international community will cut aid supplies to the refugees.
It could also see the closure of the Bububuram refugee camp. Programs Coordinator for the Ghana Refugee Board, Tetteh Padi, told Joy News the refugees will be forced to integrate if the deadline elapses.
“The international community together has come together, and this includes the Liberian government, and they have agreed that the conditions back in Liberia are good enough, safe enough for those who fled the war,” Mr Tetteh Padi.
He said the refugees have the option to regularize their stay in the country with the Immigration Service.
Mr. Padi is also asking the over 11,000 Liberian refugees in Ghana to voluntarily repatriate to their country because of the stable political situation there now.
