Land Reform and Justice for All in the Bahamas
Published by Bishop Walter S. Hanchell on Oct 25, 2009
We, the undersigned, declare our support for the PETITION for Land Reform and the establishment of a Land Register. We also join the fight in advocating for Justice for ALL Bahamians.
We believe in the sovereignty of God and the rule of law. We believe that the CHURCH is a sacred institution established by God for worship and for the spiritual development of people everywhere.
We further believe that no building dedicated for the worship of Almighty God should be allowed to be desecrated, bulldozed or destroyed as a result of any land dispute and that alternate options and remedies should be embraced in such disputes.
We declare that any company, person or organization seeking to destroy the House of God be treated with contempt and disdain and that such actions by any company, person or organization be condemned.
Further we hereby advance this PETITION to the Government of the Bahamas to normalize the title of all those persons owning property in Pinewood Gardens, Nassau Village and Sir Lynden Pindling Estates, whose title emanated from Certificates of Title issued by the Supreme Court and specifically to JOHN SANDS and THADDEUS JOHNSON.
We further request the intervention of the Government in resolving other matters of land disputes throughout the nation, which have adversely affected innocent landowners, who have been or may be threatened with losing their homes and properties as a result of circumstances beyond their control.
We believe that land reform and the establishment of a land register will avert land owners from becoming victims of land disputes and from the threat of losing their properties which were previously declared to have good and marketable titles.
