The Ghana Police Service has granted permission for the Minority Caucus in Parliament to carry out their planned demonstration against the Governor of the Bank of Ghana and his deputies on Tuesday, October 3, 2023.

The police have also provided details regarding the designated routes for the protesters.

ACP Grace Ansah-Akrofi, the Director of Public Affairs of the Ghana Police Service, addressed the media on October 2, ahead of the scheduled protest.

She outlined the specified routes for the demonstrators, which include gathering at the Obra Spot at Kwame Nkrumah Circle and proceeding through Adabraka, Ridge Roundabout, National Theatre Traffic Light, High Court Complex Traffic Light, Attah Mills Highway, making a U-Turn at the National Lottery Authority, and concluding the march at Independence Square.

The police service assured the public of their commitment to deploying an adequate number of officers to ensure peace and security throughout the demonstration.Certain roads will be temporarily blocked during the protest.

The road leading from Independence Square in front of the National Lottery Authority (NLA) to the Old Parliament Traffic Light will be closed to vehicular traffic for the duration of the exercise.

Alternative routes will be provided, diverting traffic through the Starlet Traffic Light, Ministries Traffic Light, in front of the Office of the Department of Urban Roads, the National Lottery Authority, linking up with the AMA office Road to EOCO, and eventually returning to the John Evans Atta Mills Highway at the Old Parliament Traffic Light intersection.

Additionally, the Ghana Police Service urged journalists covering the protest to carry identification to facilitate their movements.The demonstration had been postponed several times due to disagreements between the police and the Minority over the proposed routes.

The Minority is organizing the protest to demand the resignation of the Governor of the Bank of Ghana and his deputies in response to the Bank's reported GH¢60.81 billion loss in the 2022 fiscal year and the allocation of over $250 million for the construction of a new headquarters for the central bank.
