Oblieman Chief Takes Step To Tackle Land Encroachers

The Chief of Oblieman, Nii Ayittey Oyanka has vowed to protect all land belonging to the Abola Piam of the Ga state.

The Acting Chief of the Ga state was alarmed by the increasing number of illegal encroachment of lands belonging to the family of Abola Piam by unsuspecting individuals.

Nii Ayittey Oyanka popularly known in private life as Zola, warned persons terrorising residents and selling off land that does not belong to them should put a stop before they come for them.

Nii Obliman made the statement over the weekend when he installed new youth chiefs at Treba in the Ga West Municipality in the Greater Accra Region.

Nii Ayittey Oyanka charged them to use their position to spearhead development and protect lands belonging to the Ga.

According to him, the people of Ga have allowed politicians to divide their front making it impossible to have a Oaramount Chief for the region.

Pointing to the fact that the old are the problems facing the Ga state saying, the time has come for them to step aside and allow the youth to take up the leadership role.
