An injunction will be placed on all ongoing building projects and other structures located in water ways, Greater Accra Regional Minister, Henry Quartey.
According to the Regional Minister, this would be the only way to halt the erection of illegal structures in the region.
“I will seek the advice of the Attorney General as a matter of urgency to place an injunction on all buildings springing up in water ways and ramsar sites to allow the assemblies conduct investigations as to which one have encroached water ways and ramsar sites.

The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Henry Quartey, says his outfit will immediately secure an injunction from the court on all structures under construction on waterways in the capital.
He said this when he visited the Kpeshie Lagoon in the La Dade-Kotopon Municipality where some structures had been mounted on the banks of the lagoon.
Mr. Quartey had earlier ordered the demolition of structures on waterways.
Some assemblies in Accra like the Accra Metropolitan Authority and Ablekuma West Municipal Assembly have also threatened to demolish buildings on waterways to limit the potential impact of flooding.
But Mr. Quartey has now cautioned developers engaged in such acts to refrain from it as he seeks legal redress.
