 Buduburam Refugee Camp |
The Buduburam camp, which used to host mainly Liberians who sought asylum in Ghana during the war in their country has hosted other foreign nationals from Nigeria, Senegal, Ivory Coast, and some Ghanaians.
It became the home of Liberian refugees after it was opened by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in 1990. It was initially home to some 12,000 refugees.
On Thursday, September 30, 2021, The Gomoa East Assembly scheduled a demolition exercise.[1]
Suspension Of The Demolition Exercise[edit]
After the appeals from the residents on September 30, 2021, The Ghana Refugee Board said the exercise was suspended.[2]
Buduburam Demolition[edit]
In July, 2021, The District Chief Executive for Gomoa East, Solomon Darko-Quarm, revealed that the Buduburam Refugee Camp will be demolished to pave way for the development of a modern market, a senior high school and a residential community.[3]
2000 Ghanaians and Liberian nationals have been affected by the exercise. The affected residents moved to occupy the Gomoa Buduburam Point Hope Basic School.[4] Aside paying way for development, the exercise also aims to clamp down on criminal activities in the area which is believed to be a hideout for criminals terrorising residents in the area.[5]
