Statement: UNDP Does Not Have Flats In Cantonments
24.08.2018 LISTEN

Accra, 22nd August 2018 – UNDP’s attention has been drawn to the media news story on flats in Cantonments being occupied by national security officials, who are to be evicted by Government for non-payment of rents. UNDP wishes to state that it has no housing facility in Cantonments.

Our understanding is that the facility in question was built in the 1960s and was being rented out to officials of the diplomatic corps. The facility does not belong to UNDP and none of our staff is staying in the said flats.

We will take steps to engage Government to change the historical name of the flats.

Signed
Gita Honwana Welch
