Residents of the Rocky Hill Community near the Ducor Palace Hotel say they will not comply with government’s order to vacate the area.
The Chairman of the community told Star Radio they would leave the area only upon the orders of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Mr. Andrew Ngolloe maintained they are not illegal occupants as alleged by the Executive Mansion.
Presidential Press secretary Cyrus Wleh-Badio on Monday urged the residents to accept government’s relocation package as a full scale renovation of the hotel was pending.
The package includes acquiring land in the Caldwell area for what the Executive Mansion considers a reasonable price.
But Mr. Ngolloe says they will not accept any package, saying it is only the court that can determine the real owner of the areas in question.
