Margins ID Group has partnered with the Korle Klottey Municipal Assembly (KoKMA) to redevelop the Kinbu Triangle, one of central Accra’s busiest intersections, as part of the company’s 35th anniversary celebration.

The project, fully financed by Margins as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility commitments, will introduce new greenery, safer pedestrian routes and renewable-energy lighting to ease congestion and reduce rising urban temperatures.

The handover of the site was formalised on 17 November 2025, when the Municipal Chief Executive of KoKMA, Alfred Allotey-Gaisie, officially transferred responsibility for the redevelopment to Margins.

The MCE said the professionalism and strong presentation delivered by the youthful Margins team played a significant role in the Assembly’s decision to partner with the company.

He explained that several open and green spaces across the municipality require rehabilitation, noting that neglected areas quickly attract hawkers, create disorder and become difficult to reclaim.

He described the initiative as a timely intervention that supports efforts to restore Accra’s image as a modern and well-organised capital city.“We are happy to have you as partners and look forward to working with you,” he said.

Founder and CEO of Margins, Moses Kwesi Baiden Jnr, said the project reflects the creativity and leadership needed to address local urban challenges.“We are all part of government, and citizens must also play a role in finding solutions,” he noted.

“These solutions are not always financial; sometimes they require vision and partnerships with those who share a mutual interest in national development.”

Baiden commended the Assembly for recognising the problem and engaging suitable partners to deliver a sustainable solution.

He said such collaboration is essential to addressing Ghana’s broader development challenges by combining the resilience of the private sector with public-sector leadership.

He highlighted Margins’ experience in public-private partnerships, citing the Ghana Card project as a strong example of the benefits of aligning public mandates with private expertise.

“We’ve walked past this area many times, wondering why it had become occupied and neglected,” he said.

“Your vision, coupled with our partnership, can transform this barren space into a landmark. All it takes is leadership and clarity of purpose.

"Baiden reaffirmed Margins’ commitment to “lighting up the triangle” and ensuring the redevelopment becomes a model for similar initiatives nationwide.

“This partnership reflects our belief that responsible companies must contribute to the communities they operate in. Ghana has the talent and capacity; we simply need to work together,” he stated.

The redevelopment forms part of Margins ID Group’s wider Sustainable Development Goals programme, particularly SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) and SDG 13 (Climate Action).

The upgraded Kinbu Triangle is intended both as a public benefit and as a symbolic milestone marking the Group’s 35 years of service. Margins ID Systems Applications Limited, the Group’s technology arm, will lead implementation and provide annual maintenance to keep the space functional and well-preserved.

Architect for the project, Ama Ogbugo of Slate Urban Design, said the aim is to create a sustainable, visually appealing and iconic destination that meets SDG standards. The design team aims to complete the redevelopment by Christmas and will work closely with Parks and Gardens and KoKMA to address any challenges that arise.

The project responds to concerns about heat, air quality and pedestrian safety along a commercial corridor linking major roads and office complexes.

The redesign will introduce climate-resilient landscaping, defined walkways and improved crossings to create a cooler, safer and more accessible environment.

The redesigned Kinbu Triangle will feature solar lighting powered by 300-watt panels, defined walkways, decorative kerbs, protective fencing, ornamental plants and a central sculptural installation.
