The Tema Metropolitan Assembly (TMA) has embarked on a demolition exercise around the Tema Republic School in Community Four to restore sanity and reclaim the school\u2019s land from encroachers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The exercise, spearheaded by the Metropolitan Chief Executive (MCE) Ebi Bright, formed part of the assembly\u2019s broader efforts to protect public institutions within the metropolis from activities that undermine their core purpose.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ms. Bright said the presence of brothels, ghettos, mechanical shops, pubs, and sheep and goats\u2019 pens, among other socially unacceptable operations around the school, had exposed pupils to various dangers and disrupted effective teaching and learning activities.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She stated that schools, hospitals, and other government installations within the Tema metropolis were considered as security zones, explaining that those facilities were established to serve specific social and developmental goals; therefore, the TMA could not sit unconcerned and allow their environments to be compromised by activities that defeat their purpose.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u202fThe MCE revealed that the assembly had engaged the encroachers for more than five months in sustained consultations before finally carrying out the exercise.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u202f\u201cWe gave them ample time and opportunities to relocate voluntarily; some have duly cooperated, whereas others have shown blatant and continuous disregard for the assembly\u2019s directives, and that has necessitated this action,\u201d she said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u202fMs. Bright added that trees would be planted around the perimeter of the school to restore its natural boundary, while security and monitoring measures would be intensified to prevent future encroachments.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

She also called on residents within the Tema Metropolis to participate in the National Sanitation Day, which comes off on the first Saturday of every month, to keep Tema and its environs clean at all times.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u202fMs Bright reiterated the assembly\u2019s commitment to enforcing development regulations across the metropolis to protect public properties and safeguard the welfare of residents.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Officers from the TMA, the Ghana Police Service (GPS), the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF), and the National Disaster Management Organisation (NADMO) were present to supervise the operation, ensuring order and safety throughout the exercise.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
