Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, Member of Parliament for North Tongu, has unveiled a list of government officials and prominent individuals he alleges are involved in the controversial purchase of state-owned lands.
The revelation has ignited fresh debates on the transparency and integrity of public land transactions in Ghana.
In an X post, Ablakwa presented detailed documentation to support his claims, accusing various high-ranking officials and influential figures of acquiring state lands at prices far below market value.
According to the MP, these transactions were not only improper but also lacked the necessary due diligence and transparency expected in the management of public assets.
Among those named in Ablakwa’s list are current and former government officials, as well as several well-known business figures.
The MP argued that these individuals used their positions of power to gain access to prime real estate at the expense of the public.
He called for an immediate investigation into the transactions and urged the government to take steps to reclaim the lands in question.
