A Quick Note To Child Rights International Ghana - To Prevent A Possible Injustice To Two Children

Dear Child Rights International,


This being Ghana, I am worried that the family of a gentleman who died suddenly last week,  might  take over his  two orphaned children's late grandfather's one bedroom semi-detached house, at the Gomoa Buduburam State Housing Company's estate. 


Although my fears migt be unfounded, the question one ought to ponder over is: How do we,  the neighbours, intervene, to prevent any such injustice and outrage - since the two children's hardworking  mother, who is a deeply religious lady,  is a classic Faa ma Nyame-type, who definitely won't fight her partner's family,  if they insist on taking over the property?


Those two kids, a girl and boy, were born in the estate, and it's their late grandpapa's property in which they have both lived all their young  lives,  together with their late father. Don't they have a right to continue  living with their mother in that house, despite the fact that she and their father weren't  officially married?


Thanks.  


Kind regards 


Kofi.
