Tenants stranded after Kumasi landlord allegedly sells houses without notice
Several tenants in Kumasi in the Ashanti Region have reportedly been left stranded after their landlord allegedly sold a compound house without any notice.
In a viral video circulating on social media, distraught tenants were seen moving their belongings out of their rooms while security personnel monitored the situation.
According to reports, the securities were sent to the compound to ensure the occupants vacated the premises to make way for the new owner.
Some tenants claimed they were caught by surprise and had no prior notice about the sale of the property. Personal items, including mattresses, kitchen utensils, and bags, were seen piled outside the compound as affected residents struggled to find alternative accommodation.
Eyewitnesses alleged that tensions rose during the eviction process, with some tenants pleading for more time to arrange new places to stay. Others expressed frustration over the manner in which the situation was handled.
