The ancestral lands of the Benimasi-Boadi people in Ghana are at risk. Immediate action is needed to protect their homes, heritage, and future. Without it, they may lose their land, cultural identity, and livelihoods. Land Rights Defenders are providing legal aid, raising awareness, and advocating for the enforcement of Ghana's Land Act 2020. Your donation is crucial-it can make the difference between justice and displacement. Join us now. Every second counts.
The Benimasi-Boadi People are at risk of losing their ancestral lands and heritage due to the Asantehene's unjust seizure, which violates the Land Act 2020. Nana Osei Bonsu was tortured for six days in police custody for fighting to protect these lands. This land grab threatens their cultural identity, causing displacement, hunger, and cultural erosion, while the Asantehene's defiance and the government's silence highlight a failure to protect indigenous rights.
This project aims to address the urgent plight of the Benimasi-Boadi People by implementing a comprehensive strategy. First, we will provide expert legal aid to challenge the unjust land seizure under the Land Act 2020. This legal support will help the community assert their rights and protect their ancestral lands. We will build the capacity of their leaders and advocate for their heritage, while amplifying their voices at the UN to raise international awareness and support for their cause.
This project aims to restore the Benimasi-Boadi people's ancestral lands, ensuring their livelihoods and cultural continuity. By safeguarding their unique heritage, we empower the community to defend their rights and preserve their identity. Holding the Asantehene and the government accountable sets a vital precedent for respecting Indigenous Peoples' land rights. Your donation is a powerful act of justice, making a tangible difference and securing a just future for the Benimasi-Boadi community.
