Dr Kofi Amoa-Abban, founder of Kofi Abban Holdings and Rigworld Solutions, has been officially served with two contempt of court applications by Titanium 123 Properties Limited in their protracted legal battle over land ownership.
The documents were served by a court bailiff on Friday, 30 May 2025, during a public event, the 2025 Practitioners’ Forum hosted by the School of Graduate Studies at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA).
The forum, chaired by Vice-Chancellor Professor John K.M. Mawutor, featured Dr Abban as the keynote speaker, making the service both symbolic and highly visible.
The contempt motions arose from alleged breaches of a July 2024 High Court ruling concerning a 22.36-acre parcel of land at Prampram, in the Greater Accra Region.
The case involves Titanium 123 Properties, Menlix Ventures, and other parties with competing claims to the land.
While the July 2024 order imposed a general injunction on all parties, it made a critical exception: grantees of Titanium 123 Properties were permitted to continue lawful construction activities.
However, in an affidavit filed by Christian Kpakpo Abbosey, Director of Titanium 123 Properties, the company alleges that Dr Abban and Edward Tetteh, acting on behalf of Kofi Abban Holdings, wilfully flouted the court order.
According to the affidavit, in August 2024, the respondents allegedly mobilised armed military personnel and police officers to forcibly halt work being undertaken by Titanium’s grantees.
The operation, reportedly carried out with support from the then National Security Minister, involved the assault of workers, destruction of structures, and disruption of active construction works, including the filling of dug foundations.
In an attempt to legitimise their actions, the respondents applied on 16 August 2024, seeking a variation of the court’s ruling.
This application was dismissed in February 2025, reaffirming Titanium’s legal right to continue its operations.
The conflict escalated once more on 9 April 2025, when a team led by ASP Malaika-Jabril Alhassan, accompanied by uniformed police officers, returned to the site and demolished all ongoing construction activities despite no new court order authorising such action.
The estimated cost of the damage now exceeds GH₵2 million.
Due to repeated evasions by the respondents, serving the court documents had previously proven difficult.
The successful service at the UPSA event marks a significant step forward in efforts to hold the respondents accountable.
Titanium 123 Properties Limited has described the actions of Kofi Abban Holdings and its associates as a serious affront to judicial authority and a dangerous precedent for land administration and enforcement of lawful orders in Ghana.
The company reaffirmed its commitment to due process and the rule of law.
