Stop Publishing Falsehoods

The AkwraboyeDoku Family of the Atrekor We of Teshie, a suburb of Accra, is fighting off media accusation that some of its family members and close associates are land guards.

This follows recent publicationsin the media, captioned “Trouble Looms At Otanor Over Demolition Of Properties By Land Guards,” which mentioned a certain Michael Adjei, a known member of the family, and Sarah MaameAmaForkuo, a known close friend, are land guards – a reportage the family says is false.

According to the family, which is the custodian of the 748.39 acres of Otanor lands in East Legon, near Adjiringanor, in the Adentan Municipality in the Greater Accra Region, it is concerned about these publications in the media which seem to mar its hard-earned reputation.

It provided detailed documents of a court ruling, a power of attorney and other materials that portrayed people, who are legitimate members of the family, as land guards.

In a rejoinder to rebut the publications, copied to The Anchor, the family demanded that such publications be retracted, and warned individuals who have absolutely no connection to the family, but are troubling and demanding ransom from occupants of the Otanor lands, resulting in fear and panic, to desist from such acts.

The family said, “Mr.Famieh is the sole legal person with power of attorney to deal with issues relating to Otanor lands, while Mr. Adjei and MaameAmaForkuo are not land guards as promoted and published by some sections of the media. We urge them to retract such falsehood.”

“It is very concerning to note that some hooligans with no connection to the family are going about tormenting and demanding ransom from occupants of the Otanor lands in East Legon, causing fear and panic among residents,” it lamented.

Speaking through itsholder of the power of attorney, Dennis Farmieh, it called on those promoting such an agenda of upsetting the peace and tranquility of residents occupying Otanor lands to stop for peace to prevail.

The statement further urged the public to disregard the publications seeking to paint a very negative image of family members and dared those behind the publications to appear and present the documents that give them the authority to carry themselves as the true owners of the said land.

“We, therefore, attach all relevant documents including court rulings, power of attorney and notice to all occupants of Otanor lands for the attention and perusal of the general public,” it added.

RE: TROUBLE LOOMS AT OTANOR OVER DEMOLITION OF PROPERTIES BY LAND GUARDS- FAMILY RELATIONS NOT LAND GUARDS- AKWRABOYE DOKU FAMILY

The attention of the AkwraboyeDoku Family of Atrekor We of Teshie, owners and custodians of 748.39 acres of Otanor lands in East Legon, near Adjiringanor of the Adentan Municipality in the Greater Accra Region, has been drawn to some media publications that sought to tarnish the family’s hard-earned reputation in relation to tagging some members of the family as land guards.

The publications above, which seek to label some family members as land guards and troublemakers, such as Michael Adjei, a known member of the family, and Sarah MaameAmaForkuo, a known close friend to the true custodians of the Otanor lands, are false.

Mr.Famieh is the sole legal person with power of attorney to deal with issues relating to Otanor lands, while Mr. Adjei and MaameAmaForkuo are not land guards as promoted and published by some sections of the media. We urge them to retract such falsehood.

It is very concerning to note that some hooligans with no connection to the family are going about tormenting and demanding ransom from occupants of the Otanor lands in East Legon, causing fear and panic among residents.

The family is using this medium to call on those promoting such an agenda of upsetting the peace and tranquility of residents occupying Otanor lands to stop.

The AkwraboyeDoku Family of Atrekor We of Teshie urges the general public to disregard the publications that seek to paint a very negative image of family members and dare those behind the publications to appear and present the documents that give them the authority to carry themselves as such.

We, therefore, attach all relevant documents including court rulings, power of attorney and notice to all occupants of Otanor lands for the attention and perusal of the general public.
