Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Gbande, has issued a firm warning to participants ahead of the party's nationwide demonstration on Tuesday, September 17, 2024.

He made it clear that any disruptive behavior during the protests will not be tolerated by the NDC.

Speaking to Citi FM on Monday, September 16, Gbande revealed that the party’s internal security team is ready to take swift action against anyone who attempts to cause trouble.

The demonstration, aimed at pressuring the Electoral Commission (EC) to audit the voter register, will be conducted in a lawful manner, according to Gbande.

He emphasized that NDC security personnel are fully prepared to maintain order and swiftly address any disruptions, ensuring the protest proceeds smoothly and peacefully. The party has put measures in place to guarantee a safe and orderly event.

“We will walk as slowly as possible, that will take us to the Electoral Commission peacefully…we also do know that our brothers from the NPP intended to let some people wear our T-shirts to come and pretend as if they were part of the demonstrators and cause trouble so that we would get a bad name."

“We wouldn’t wait for the police to deal with such an act. We ourselves will detail our security guys to deal with such a threat the way it deserves if it shows its head."

“Because the NDC and the people of Ghana intend to embark on a very peaceful demonstration. A peaceful, demonstration that will manifest our disgust to enforce the cleanup or an audit of our voter register. if anybody covertly arranges to come and perpetrate illegality in that demonstration, we will deal with that person with any force that we can marshal at that level so that we do not take a bad name home,” he stated.
