The President of the Republic of Liberia, His Excellency Joseph Nyuma Boakai, Sr., has received report about the demolition exercise of the former Liberian refugee camp,Buduburam, Ghana. The demolition is said to be in progress.
It is the understanding of the President that the current activities taking place are under the auspices of the Gomoa-Fetteh Traditional Council, who are believed to be the owners of the land hosting the Buduburam Camp.
The President has therefore called on the Ghanaian government, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, to intervene to ensure the Liberians living on the camp are safe, protected, and treated humanely.
The President will receive guidance on the matter from the Minister of Foreign Affairs and line agencies as to the next step to be taken.
The President is meanwhile calling on Liberians affected by the demolition to remain calm as the situation has beenfully assessed and an amicable solution is being sought.
