Dozens of heavily armed policemen and taskforce of the Tema Development Corporation (TDC) early Friday morning stormed the Kaizer Flats in Tema Community 4 to evict residents.
TDC, who are owners of the Flat, secured a court order to flush out the residents who they described as squatters on the basis that the building was terribly weak and posed a great danger to its occupants.
In May 2017, the Minister of Works and Housing, Mr Samuel Atta Akyea, directed the TDC to clear illegal occupants from some of the structures at the flats.
The occupants of the flats had sought court action to restrain the TDC from ejecting them but after two years of litigation, the High Court and Court of Appeal ruled in favour of the TDC.

Even though the ruling was given in November 2016, requiring the squatters to vacate the flats, they have remained adamant to calls by the TDC to do so.
