Open letter to all those threatened by the planned demolition of Gomoa Buduburam's Camp Liberia

Your future is not nearly as bleak as many of you now understandably feel, it is, as a result of the impending planned demolition of Camp Liberia A far better future is possible for all of you - regardless of whichever part of Ghana and Africa your origins lie - if you take your collective-destiny into your own hands. Now. Not tomorrow.

Your unique, dynamic and very special melting-pot-society, so full of creative energy, and blessed with ambitious younger generations (the vast majority born and bred in Camp Liberia), gifted with the most amazing talents, can be replicated, and recreated again, in Ashalajah, in a new purpose-built, climate-resilient green gated-community. Yes. Hallelujah. Insha Allah.

The question that ought to exercise the minds of all those of you currently residing in Gomoa Buduburam's Camp Liberia refugee settlement area, is: Who will lead us to this new African Nirvana? The answer is simple and uncomplicated.

To begin with, you must ditch all the so-called leadership of the Liberian refugees whose criminal and egregious-insouciance, has led you into the dead-end-situation, which you now face, and are grappling with, amidst such dread-filled-uncertainty.

You must then have a Townhall-meeting to select a transition team, and give them the mandate to request a meeting (arranged by the CEO of the Legon Botanical Gardens, Mr. Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom, with stakeholders, to discuss a private-sector plan, to build a new green climate-resilient gated community, for you, at Ashalaja.

The transition team's task, will be to sound out, through discussions, the following key individuals, whom they can collaborate with, on your behalf, to have the new Ashalajah climate-resilient green gated community, built, for those now living in the Gomoa Buduburam Camp Camp Liberia refugee settlement area, who so desire, to occupy it:

1) The Ashalaja Prince, popularly known as Mushey, his business partner, baby-Mam, and my beloved granddaughter, Helena Otoo-Ofori, the green economy fixer; Mr. Nelson Boateng, the founder of Nelplast Ghana Limited; the brilliant Ghanaian architect, Mr. Kojo Derban; and last, but not the least, Ghana's foremost green entrepreneur, and CEO, of Legon Botanical Gardens, the master-planner Mr. Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom.

At that meeting, the transition team members must assure the named key individuals above, that they (the transition team members representing all those now currently resides in the Gomoa Buduburam Camp Camp Liberia refugee settlement area), would welcome, on your behalf, the opportunity to live in the new climate-resilient green gated-community, at Ashalaja, made up of plastic houses, for renting (at rental rates starting from GHc100 to GHc400 per month), and outright purchase, at amazingly affordable prices.

With that given assurance, duly delivered, all the above-mentioned individuals will work together, as a project team that will be led by Mr Eugene Kofi Boakye-Yiadom, which will endeavour to get that Ashalaja climate-resilient green gated community, built, all things being equal, within the next six months, before Camp Liberia is finally demolished. Take heart, dear friends - the future for your great and unrivalled creative-energy-filled melting-pot-society, is very, very bright: at Ashalajah.
