It is one clear symptom of the culture of impunity that has taken over Ghana and a clear sign of our collective failure to create a disciplined, lawful and orderly society. Should you pay? No! People should not be allowed to reap where they have not sown!

I have heard that they can be affiliated with people within the community. They sometimes follow the excavator to see who is starting work and hang out around the rental establishments to know where the machinery is being delivered to.

This started in Kumasi years ago and still there till now. The chiefs started that as a way to protect some of the dispute between lands with macho men.

As a Caribbean man I would never pay

Great topic only problem in Ghana is that laws everyday are passed as u know Land Guards are an illegal entity however they never work because who enforces it

These land guards are a problem and extortionist. Paying the digging fee will not free you from their activities as i experienced them. I paid digging fee of 3,500 Cedis to chiefs right before I started my project yet these land guards came to the site and harassed us regularly. They were given small monies here and there whenever there was any form of work going on. I remember I challenged them on the phone one time and they threw the phone to the ground that belonged to one of my people. Another time when we refused to pay, they took the tools of the workers with them and we had to pay to get them back The people in the community usually tell them when someone is working on their project. I walled and gated my place before after my various experiences before my next major work on the project thinking they can't come in if no one opens the gate. These land guards started stoning my people from out the wall of the project. I went on my community platform and raised hell about the people that hint the land guards to come harass residents while they are working. Somehow the land guards got called off and the work went on smoothly

Land guard is a problem in the greater Accra region.

Is thesame also in Nigeria. They come as soon as you start the foundation. But the money they request is almost nothing. But when you pay once, get your receipt so that when other groups come around, just show them

One question wouldn't an attorney know the status of titled litigation free land and these annoyances?

There getting their information from corrupt officials that directly involved with land. I’m reluctant to pay, but if my life in danger, I guess I would.

They are in central region also

This mostly happens in Accra and Kumasi.

What about apam is it prevalent there.

Bro can you recommend me some books about money and mindset ? I got rich dad poor dad, 48 laws of power . What else can I get or will you recommend?

Be armed yourself

I don’t know who asked them to be guarded people land They will be getting the chicken changes and end up old with no land for themselves it is very frustrating dealing with them

If I decide not to pay them, can I get the police involved or the land guard unit you mentioned? Or do I have to pay them off as well?

Hi Rush, I really want to talk you mate

You people should do your research well , there are land guards and there are asafo people ! Do more learning

Would have got on their ass. The neighbor told or a worker.

This is nonsense. Waste of time to have watched this. What's your point here.
