The Ministry of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, in collaboration with the Advertising Association of Ghana, is set to embark on a citywide exercise on November 14, 2026, to identify and remove unauthorised and non-compliant billboards across Accra.
The exercise forms part of efforts to regulate outdoor advertising, enforce compliance with billboard requirements and address the growing presence of advertising structures operating without the necessary authorisation.
Under the planned exercise, billboards that remain unidentified or fail to meet the required standards by the deadline may be earmarked for removal.
The initiative is expected to strengthen oversight of outdoor advertising and ensure that billboard operators comply with the relevant regulations.
