The Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that Alpha Beta Education Centres Limited holds a valid title to parcels of land at Dansoman–Akokorfoto in Accra, bringing to a close a land dispute that began in 2014.

The judgment, delivered last Wednesday, affirmed a July 2024 decision of the Court of Appeal, which ordered recovery of possession of the land, and granted a perpetual injunction against the defendants and their agents.

The five-member panel of the apex court was presided over by Justice Avril Lovelace-Johnson, with Justices Samuel Kwame Adibu-Asiedu, Kweku Tawiah Ackaah-Boafo, Sir Dennis Dominic Adjei, and Yaw Darko Asare as members.

The Business Development Manager of Alpha Beta Education Centres Ltd, John Adjepong, said the decision had conclusively settled ownership of the disputed parcels and provided legal certainty for the institution’s long-term planning and development.

Reacting to the judgment, Co-Founder of Alpha Beta Education Centres Ltd, Rev. Sammy Adjepong, expressed gratitude to God and reaffirmed the institution’s values.

“We give all glory to God, the righteous Judge of all the earth.

This unanimous decision brings to a close a long and testing journey that began in 2014.

Throughout this period, we remained guided by integrity, patience, discipline, and respect for the rule of law,” he said.

Rev. Adjepong noted that the judgment was more than a legal victory.

“This ruling is a testament to faith, patience, and respect for due process. We are grateful to the Supreme Court for upholding justice and to all who stood with us in prayer and perseverance.

He added that the ruling safeguarded the school’s mission and ethos.

“Alpha Beta Education Centres is founded on strong moral and academic values — excellence, discipline, fairness, and the holistic development of the child.

This judgment allows us to continue serving students and families with stability, transparency, and a deep sense of responsibility to society,” the Co-Founder of Alpha Beta said.

The institution noted that the decision also underscored the importance of legal certainty in protecting educational investments, enabling schools to plan, innovate and contribute meaningfully to national development.

Alpha Beta Education Centres Limited, established in 1988 and offering the Cambridge and Pearson programmes, reaffirmed its commitment to quality education as it continues to prepare future leaders for the country and beyond.
