The Okpelor Sowah Din Family has relied on a series of court judgments, including a landmark Supreme Court ruling, to dismiss allegations by the Nungua Stool over ownership of the Nmai Dzorn lands, describing the claims as legally untenable and already settled by the courts.
At a press conference, the family said the Supreme Court’s decision in Adjetey Agbosu & Others v. Ebenezer Nikoi Kotey & Others delivered on May 5, 2004, conclusively vested ownership of the Nmai Dzorn lands in the Okpelor Sowah Din Family. They further referenced a May 14, 2015 Court of Appeal judgment, which they said reaffirmed their ownership and rejected competing claims advanced by the Nungua Stool.
The family also disclosed that two recent injunction applications filed by the Nungua Stool—one at the Accra High Court on 31st July, 2025 and another at the Tema court—were both dismissed. According to them, the courts affirmed that the lands in question belong to Nmai Dzorn, describing the repeated applications as an abuse of court process.
Addressing claims that there was no judgment plan for the land, the family said this was misleading, insisting that both the judgment plan and Supreme Court ruling had been submitted on several occasions to the Police Criminal Investigations Department at its headquarters in Accra.
The family warned that continued disregard for binding judicial decisions could undermine respect for the rule of law and announced its readiness to pursue further legal action should what it called defamatory claims persist.
