The Nii Okpe family of Amomole under the Ngleshie Alata Paramountcy of Jamestown British Accra, has called on land owners within the area to consult the family for proper documentation following a recent court ruling.
Addressing the press in Accra on Saturday, Head of family, NiiAshietteyTetteh explained that, lands within the area hitherto, were occupied by Ablekuma people but after an appeal, the Supreme Court has declared the NiiOkpe Family as the rightful owners.
“We are calling on the general public especially land owners inAmomole that the NiiOkpefamily, has a customary land secretariat, under the Land Administration Project (LAP) that all those who have acquired land at Amomole and did not acquire it through the NiiOkpe Family should come over to them to secure a legitimate document,” he stated.
In 2017, he explained, a judgement was held in favour of Ablekuma, but following an appeal, the Supreme Court on March 18, 2024 overturned and ruled that the NiiOkpefamily was the rightful owners, hence the need for property owners to visit the family for proper documentation.
“The lands no longer belong to Ablekuma and we ask the public to desist from dealing with anyone except the NiiOkpefamily,” he stated.
The NiiOkpefamily also urged members of the community to obey the laws that govern the community for peaceful existence.
He also cautioned the public to desist from engaging with one NiiTettehCommey parading asChief of the area.
He said, according to the Chieftaincy Act, the installation of a Chief has to go through processes which never happened hence there is currently no chief at Amomole as declared by the Judicial Committee of Ngleshie Alata.
He encouraged the community to report issues of harassment by land guards for proper actions to be taken by the NiiOkpefamily.
“Anylandguard who has been spotted on our lands and reported to me, would be dealt with according to the law,” he added.

About 120 golfers from clubs across Ghana participated in an 18-hole competition, dubbed ‘MTN 30th Anniversary CEO Invitational Golf Tournament’ held at the Achimota Golf Club on Saturday.
At the end of the hectic day, Frederick Semenu Duvor won the Men’s Group A event with 39 points, while Julienne Afi claimed the Ladies’ Group A title with the same score.
Yaw Mireku Jnr. won the Men’s Group B with an impressive 45 points, while Kous Louanges Mang took the Ladies’ Group B title with 38 points.
Kofi Mangesi won Men’s Group C with 40 points while Elorm R. Akuash Bonney claimed the Ladies’ version with 42 points.
In the Seniors Division, Jan Vogel emerged winner of the men’s category with 39 gross, while Helen Appah topped the ladies’ category with 44 gross.
Addressing participants, the company’s Board Chairman, Mr Ishmael Yamson, urged the company to approach its next phase with the same resilience, discipline and determination that have defined its success over the past three decades.
He drew a striking parallel between the game of golf and MTN Ghana’s three-decade journey, describing both as long games in which success depends less on one spectacular moment than on consistency, patience, judgment and the ability to recover from setbacks.
He said, golf had taught him a lesson that extended far beyond the fairways, thus, a round cannot be won on the first hole.
In golfing terms, he said, MTN Ghana had encountered its share of regulatory bunkers, competitive hazards and unexpected storms that had forced the company to pause, reassess and change its approach.
But those challenges, he suggested, were part of the journey rather than reasons to abandon it.
