Written on
Allodial landowners of Aburi Amanfrom in Ghana's Eastern Region have appealed to the government to back Royal Kingdom Estates' 60-hectare Atwapim development and urged security agencies to protect the site, while dismissing rival claims to the land.
The allodial landowners of Aburi Amanfrom in the Atwapim area of Ghana's Eastern Region have appealed to the government to support an ongoing multimillion-dollar land development project being undertaken by Ghanaian construction firm Royal Kingdom Estates.
The landowners say the 60-hectare development has the potential to transform Aburi Amanfrom into a modern residential and hospitality destination while creating jobs and stimulating economic activity in the area.
Speaking to journalists at Aburi Atwapim on Friday, September 18, 2026, the Head of the Royal Agona Clan, Abusuapanyin Seth Adu Ansah, also called on the security agencies to prioritise the safety of workers and visitors at the project site, saying that ensuring security would help the development proceed and be completed on schedule.
Abusuapanyin Seth Adu Ansah dismissed what he described as claims by some individuals that they owned portions of the land earmarked for the development, and challenged anyone with a legitimate claim to pursue the matter through the appropriate legal channels. "If anyone believes they have a legitimate claim to the land, they should seek redress through the courts," he said.
The traditional authorities and landowners expressed appreciation to Royal Kingdom Estates for its corporate social responsibility initiatives in the community, saying the company's investment was already contributing to employment opportunities for young people in the area.
They described the development as an important opportunity for the growth of Aburi Amanfrom and its surrounding communities and urged all stakeholders to work together to protect the project and sustain further investment and employment.
