We’ll pursue lawful means to enjoy full benefit in land case — Tesa Family

The Numo Kofi Anum Family of Tesa has debunked reports suggesting tension at Regimanuel Estate, insisting that peace prevails in the area and that they remain in lawful possession of a significant portion of the land formerly held by Regimanuel Gray Limited.

According to the family, the land in question was rightfully awarded to them following a Supreme Court judgment and a subsequent formal possession order, which confirmed their ownership and granted them authority over the property.

Therefore, the land is currently being occupied by family members and developers who are developing their lands.

Misinformation

They emphasised that despite speculation and misinformation in sections of the media, there had been no unrest or disruption in the community, adding that law and order had been maintained since the execution of the court’s decision.

Residents who spoke to the media also described the area as calm and stable, with no incidents of confrontation following the court’s ruling.

“There’s absolutely no tension here. We go about our normal business every day, and everything is peaceful,” said one resident, who preferred to remain anonymous.

Another resident added, “People outside are saying there’s chaos, but that’s not true. The estate is as serene as it has always been.”

Rejoinder

Meanwhile, the Numo Kofi Anum Family of Tesa has issued a detailed rejoinder refuting what it describes as “false and misleading claims” regarding the ownership of the disputed parcel of land.

“We, therefore, call on the public to disregard such reports and trust that calm has been fully maintained within the community,” the Tesa Family said, insisting that their ownership remains intact and legally enforceable following the Supreme Court’s final ruling.

Speaking on behalf of the family, Numo Okoe Amartey Mensah clarified that the Supreme Court affirmed the Tesa Family as the lawful and allodial owners of over 918.24 acres of land, including 123.2088 acres currently occupied by Regimanuel Gray Limited.

He explained that the Supreme Court, acting on a duly submitted composite plan, confirmed that the land being developed by Regimanuel Gray falls entirely within the family’s legally recognised boundaries.

“The court held that only the Tesa Family can grant a valid title over the said land,” the rejoinder emphasised.

The Tesa Family maintained that the parent judgment in the Nii Mate Tesa case covering the entire 918.24 acres had already been enforced and remains in full effect.

They further explained that Regimanuel Gray’s appeal does not challenge their allodial ownership and, therefore, does not affect the Supreme Court’s decision.
