Lawyers of the former Assemblywoman of the Agona West Municipal Assembly, Mrs Hanna Nyarkoh are working to drag the Town and Country Planning Officer (TCP) to court for alleged interference and encroachment on her land.
Mr Frank Ebo Selby, a lawyer of Mrs Nyarkoh told Ghana News Agency at Agona Swedru that Mr Frank Martikorley, Agona West Municipal Director of TCP hired a grader and cleared the piece of land in front of his clients house without their consent.
He said the intended legal action against the TCP Officer was to ensure justice and fairness in land administration of the country.
Mr Selby noted that the land in dispute was acquired in 1994 and registered at Lands Commission after the completion of the Urban- three project in the Agona Swedru township.
He said the TCP Director cannot use his office to harass and intimidate people in the Agona West Municipality who had rightfully acquired lands.
When Mr Martikorley was contacted about the allegations he denied any wrong doing and said he was assisting the former assembly woman to acquire
the land legally.
