The Member of Parliament for Bortianor Ngleshie Amanfro and Deputy Minister for Information, Sylvester Tetteh, has revealed plans to investigate the allocation of Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) lands to private individuals in the Akwasa area, following a recent demolition.
Tetteh, who was accused of demolishing a GBC structure, firmly denied the allegations. He attributed the negative publicity to administrative oversights within the corporation.
According to Tetteh, there is an agreement between the GA South Municipal Assembly and GBC to repurpose the disputed land for a public school, which led to the demolition, a process carried out by the Assembly.
He further challenged the GBC Director of Legal Affairs to provide evidence that he was involved in demolishing any land other than the one allocated for development.
“As a sector deputy minister, and my boss will approve that, I will institute investigations into how GBC lands have ended up building private homes here where we are standing. So he should get ready. If he’s a director of legal and he had the impudence to report his sector deputy minister to the police and had the gut to put my picture on their social media handle.
He added, “I want to deal with the matter of lies that have been spilt about me that I have forcefully demolished the bungalow. What he claimed to be GBC property, a bungalow. There’s no bungalow here. There’s an old dilapidated structure here and let me tell you, there’s one man who’s has been an occupant of that place.
“They’ve been collecting money from him for years. No GBC staff had ever occupied that place for a very long time. It’s a boy’s quarters dilapidated building. Nobody works in GBC had occupied that property and when the estate manager was here and the coordinates were picked, the coordinates that were picked, that included that whole area. So if you want to build there and an old dilapidated structure is there, what do you do?
“Don’t you clear it before you do the construction? So this is the site plan I’ll share with you. This is a letter sent by Kwame Waja on the instructions of the director general. Where have I gone wrong? Where has the assembly gone wrong? The municipal assembly has not done anything untoward. So this issue of a lawless MP. If I want, if I’m lawless for the sake of my community, I’ll continue to be lawless.”
