Ghanaian Opposition Party Accused of Mass Land Grab

Ghanaian Politics: Allegation of Mass Property Purchases by NDC Officials A recent claim by Kwesi Botchwey Jr., a member of the ruling NPP's communication team, has ignited controversy in Ghana. Botchwey alleges that members of the opposition NDC party are engaged in a large-scale purchase of properties in the Lakeside area, shortly after gaining power. He stated on Asempan 94.7 FM, "I received information that NDC members are buying up houses in Lakeside. I've requested the documents to verify this." The allegation raises questions about potential conflicts of interest and the use of public funds. The claim's veracity remains unverified, prompting calls for transparency and investigation. Botchwey's request for documentation is a crucial step in verifying the claim. The incident highlights the ongoing political dynamics in Ghana and the need for accountability from elected officials.
