Quansah family affirms legal sale of Kyekyewere land to KOANS

The John Emmanuel Kofi Quansah family has publicly refuted allegations that KOANS Building Solutions illegally acquired land in Kyekyewere, asserting that the transaction was entirely legal. During a press conference, the family clarified that the land was granted to the company for estate development purposes under a valid agreement. They dismissed claims of land theft, maintaining that the CEO of KOANS, Kofi Anokye, followed all necessary protocols to secure the property through a legitimate purchase from the family elders.

Providing historical and legal context, the family's Principal Elder, Nii Otoo Hortoi II, stated that their historical ownership of the land dates back to 1890 when it was first acquired by their great-grandfather. This claim is reportedly backed by a 1914 Supreme Court judgment, which the family cites as the ultimate legal authority over the land's title. By referencing these documents, the family aims to settle the long-standing dispute regarding the legitimacy of their right to transfer the property to private developers.

In response to the dissenters, Nii Otoo Hortoi II challenged those making accusations of illegal acquisition to seek recourse in a court of law rather than through public agitation. The family emphasized that they would not be swayed by public allegations and encouraged any aggrieved parties to present their evidence through proper legal channels. They reiterated their support for KOANS Building Solutions, stating that the partnership is intended to facilitate development in the Kyekyewere area while honoring their family's legal heritage.
