Former President of the Republic of Ghana, Jerry John Rawlings has threatened to demonstrate against the government if it fails to safeguard lands along the coastal areas from erosion.
The NDC founder warned that the rate at which the sea is eroding the land is alarming, hence requires critical effort from government to protect life and property.
The former President sounded this caution when he received a delegation from Parliament led by the Speaker, Rt. Hon. Aaron Mike Ocquaye. The delegation had called on the former President to commiserate with him following the demise of his mother.
According to Mr Rawlings, if it had to take him to protest at Parliament House with a placard with the inscription “give us some more groins” to ensure lands along the coast are protected, he will do it.
He urged the government to extend the sea defense project from Keta to Aflao.
