Ghana’s Lands Ministry established a 20-member taskforce dedicated to protecting public land within the Greater Accra region. The inauguration, led by Minister Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah on June 17, 2026, aims to bolster existing preservation efforts. The taskforce will focus on preventing encroachment and misuse of state-owned land in the rapidly developing Accra area. This initiative responds to growing concerns regarding unauthorized occupation and potential loss of valuable public assets. Officials anticipate the team will enhance monitoring and enforcement of land regulations. The move signifies a proactive approach to land management and sustainable urban planning in the region. The taskforce’s composition suggests a multi-agency collaboration to address the complex challenges of land protection.
