Let’s meet in court – Titus-Glover replies Chief’s legal threat amid Dodowa demolition saga
Greater Accra Regional Minister, Daniel Titus-Glover, has responded to legal threats from the Chief of Anum-Asamankese, Osabarimah Essah Kwasi Mensah Bediako III, over the recent demolition of structures near the Dodowa Forest.
In a firm rebuttal, Titus-Glover, who led the demolition, has dismissed accusations of engaging in landguard activities and expressed his willingness to defend his actions in court.
The demolition, carried out last Friday by the Greater Accra Regional Security Council (REGSEC), was prompted by escalating concerns from the Greater Accra Regional House of Chiefs about encroachment by private developers.
The area was subsequently declared a security zone, leading to the removal of the structures under construction.
Osabarimah Bediako III, a principal member of the Odoi Kese family at Obosomase, has criticized the Minister’s actions and threatened legal action against him.
However, Titus-Glover, speaking on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem on Monday, defended the demolition as a necessary measure to protect the land, which he considers part of his heritage.
He stated that all involved parties were given an opportunity to present their documentation regarding the land before the demolition on July 9, 2024.
“If they want to go to court, I’m ready. Let’s all go to court, but I am not a land guard. I am the Chairman of REGSEC. I’m not REGSEC, and we went there together. We will also bring our lawyers to court. If they claim the land was for them, why were soldiers guarding it?” Titus-Glover questioned, emphasizing his readiness to face any legal challenge.
