0

Parts of the Achimota Forest in Accra is no longer a forest reserve.

It follows the coming into force of the Executive Instrument 144 gazetted on behalf of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on April 19, 2022.

This means effective May 1, 2022, parts of the Achimota Forest Reserve is no longer a forest reserve.

President Akufo-Addo under Executive Instrument 144 has lifted the 1927 classification of the Achimota Forest as a Forest Reserve.

This is to pave way for a redesign, reclassification and development of the area.

The Executive Instrument was gazetted on behalf of President Akufo-Addo by the Minister of Lands and Natural Resources, Samuel Abu Jinapor.
