Croal denies opposition allegations over Mocha Arcadia lands

Some of the squatters’ homes that were destroyed at Mocha Arcadia

Minister of Housing and Water, Collin Croal has refuted allegations made by the opposition of the allocating of lands at Cane View, Mocha Arcadia that was once a squatting area. 

The opposition in a press release on Friday said the government had stated that the squatters were in the path of the new East Bank Demerara Road. With the use of an excavator their properties were subsequently destroyed.

“The PPP/C having claimed that the people of Cane View, Mocha were in the path of the new East Bank Road and proceeded to use an excavator to destroy their property and livelihood is now showing that the PPP/C regime is wicked, destructive, vindictive and racist,” the release stated.
