JUDGMENT<o:p></o:p>

</div>The
plaintiffs claim against the defendants an order to compel defendants to
construct an alternate family house, for all the children, grandchildren and
relatives of Alimo Fofo family.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;Or
in the alternative an order that defendants pay the GHC33, 500 into court and
same to be invested in an interest yielding account until the construction of
the family house is ready to commerce.<o:p></o:p>General damages
for breach of contract.
CASE OF <o:p></o:p>&nbsp;THE PLAINTIFF<o:p></o:p>Parties
are family members
tracing their root to their ancestors
the Alimo Fofo family.It
is the case of the plaintiffs that by a suit entitled James Tetteh Mensa &amp; 3ORS
v GIFTY TSOTSOO MENSAH with suit no. BC 391/2008, the defendant (the 2nd
plaintiff herein) lost the case and paid GHC33, 500 into Court in satisfaction
of the judgment debt.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;It
is the case of the plaintiff that house no. R16 Teshie in which members of
Alimo Fofo family resided has been demolished by Urban Road to pave way for
Road construction. According to the
plaintiffs though the defendants herein have applied to the court and received
the GHC33,500.0, on behalf of Alimo Fofo family, they have failed refused or
neglected to provide an alternative family house for all the children,
grandchildren, and relation of Alimo Fofo as promised. The defendants have also failed to account to the family members
in respect of the monies realized on behalf of&nbsp; Alimo Fofo family.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;The
plaintiffs stated that members of the Alimo Fofo family need an alternative family
house to reside in as they are at
the moment perching with friends
awaiting the construction of the house. They
therefore prayed per their reliefs endorsed on this writ.<o:p></o:p><h2 style="margin-left:43.0pt;text-align:justify">&nbsp;</h2><h2 style="margin-left:43.0pt;text-align:justify">CASE OF THE DEFENDANTS<o:p></o:p></h2>
