ASSEMBLY FIGHT GPRTU OVER LAND OWNERSHIP
Presiding Member of the Asante Akyem Central Municipal Assembly, Hon. Samuel Ohemeng has responded to the leadership of GPRTU, insisting until permit is obtained genuinely, the Assembly shall not allow the construction of any structure at the GPRTU arena in Konongo.
Hon. Samuel Ohemeng said, the transport union had no mandate to construct pavilions and that, the Assembly have already initiated talks with investors for the construction of market stalls,
Commenting on the issue, Chairman of the Konongo GPRTU, also ODumase Adontihene Nana Kwaku Ababio stated that, the Assembly has no land at the transport Union’s arena and therefore suggesting there are plans to develop the area through Public Private Partnership is a complete hoax.
“We shall conform to the processes to obtain permit to continue, but will not succumb to any encroachment on our land, we have land titles and other documentations to prove ownership”, Nana Kwaku Ababio mentioned.
He also challenged the Assembly to produce documents that proves their ownership.
However, citizens have raised concerns over the development, and pleaded with the Assembly to desist from oppressing the GPRTU on its intended pavilion construction.
The Konongo lorry station has been without sheds for more than 20 years. A situation that compels customers of the transport union to linger in rain and sunshine.
The construction of pavilions by the GPRTU sought to address the challenges faced by the transport union when completed.
