In a shocking incident that took place in Ghana, a woman, known online as @obaapa ama, expressed her distress when her landlord demolished the concrete staircase leading to their flat, allegedly due to disagreements over rent.

The landlord, it seems, was determined to force the tenant to vacate. A dispute had arisen between them concerning the rent, and the landlord resorted to this drastic measure to coerce the tenant into leaving.
