The two families claiming ownership of vast plot of lands in Accra, E.B. Tibboh, and Mantse Ankrah have provided documents acquired from the National Archives to back their claims.
At a joint press conference held by the families Friday, the families revealed that the land belongs to them as they have traced the history of lands Accra to the last 150 years.
According Joy FM’s Eric Ahianyo who was present at the press conference, the two families lamented the indigenes of Accra have been taken for granted for a long time. They insisted that their actions are not to instigate war but are for peace.
They added that much of the Accra lands have been taken over by foreigners but their recent action is to safeguard the little that is left for their younger generations.
The two families indicated their willingness of reporting themselves to police who have mounted a search for them over their acts of defacing some of the properties they are claiming ownership.
The spokesperson for the two families at the press conference called on President Mills to invite the Chairman of the Lands Commission, and the two families to a meeting to address the issue in order to prevent it from escalating.
The E.B Tibboh and Mantse Ankrah families, Accra earlier this week served notices to individuals and institutions occupying those lands to quit.
A certain William Nartey who has been acting on behalf of the Tibboh Family is alleged to be responsible for defacing various properties situated in the areas the family is claiming ownership of.
The message is in deep red ink and is warning the public to keep off or produce documents to back their ownership.
