The Managing Director of TDC Ghana Limited, Mr. Courage Makafui Nunekpeku, has announced plans to launch a comprehensive property audit aimed at reclaiming lands and assets currently under expired or unlawfully extended leases. Apexnewsgh reports
Speaking on The Class Morning Show, Mr. Nunekpeku explained that the exercise is part of broader efforts to restore TDC’s control over key properties, some of which are being misused or occupied by individuals and organizations without proper authorization.
“We are going to embark on a massive property audit very soon to recover some of these factories and real estate spaces. There are too many people sitting on TDC lands with expired leases, some even claiming to act on our behalf without any mandate,” Mr. Nunekpeku stated. The audit aims to identify and reclaim properties that are not being used for their intended purpose or are being occupied without proper authorization.
Since assuming office just over 100 days ago, Mr. Nunekpeku has moved swiftly to revamp both TDC’s operations and image. The TDC head office recently underwent significant renovations, all funded by external stakeholders rather than TDC’s own resources. “We didn’t use TDC money for this. Our stakeholders—people we’ve supported over the years—stepped in and gave us air conditioners, landscaping, vehicles, dispatch bikes… all to help us give TDC a fresh and professional look,” he noted.
Regarding recent staffing issues, Mr. Nunekpeku confirmed that several appointments and promotions made by the previous administration were reversed in line with a directive from the Chief of Staff. He clarified that the decision was based on financial considerations rather than personal motives. “We had to comply with that directive. However, with the rollout of the 24-hour economy policy and expanded responsibilities, we have reabsorbed some staff into critical departments,” he explained.
Looking ahead, the TDC boss emphasized his commitment to increasing TDC’s housing stock, improving property management systems, and delivering enhanced services to residents of Tema and other regions. “We are focused on cleaning up our property records, expanding housing, and repositioning TDC as a leader in real estate development in Ghana,” Mr. Nunekpeku affirmed.
