The Greater Accra Regional Security Council (REGSEC) has scheduled a planned demolition exercise at the Tema Ramsar site for Monday, August 4, 2025.

The exercise, to be led by Greater Accra Regional Minister, Linda Ocloo, aims to demolish unauthorised structures built on the site.

According to a report by citinewsroom.com on Friday, August 1, 2025, some of the affected areas include Tema Communities 5, 6, 10, 11, and 12.

Linda Ocloo raised concerns about the growing rate of illegal encroachments on the protected site, describing it as a 'serious threat to the ecological integrity of the Ramsar Site,' and pledged to take swift action to halt the degradation of wetlands across the country.

“This is a protected area, and we cannot allow private developers or individuals to compromise its long-term environmental value,” the minister is quoted as saying by citinewsroom.com.

The minister directed her attention toward individuals who illegally sell protected lands within the wetland for development, warning them to desist from such acts.

She firmly stressed that the government would not hesitate to take legal action against any individuals found culpable.

Meanwhile, residents occupying the affected structures have been asked to vacate the area before the demolition.
