The National Democratic Congress’s (NDC) ‘Enough is Enough’ demonstration which is underway nationwide, has turned rowdy in some parts of the country.
In Kumasi of the Ashanti Region, protestors and police officers clashed, leading to the arrest of a protestor, per reports.
The office of the Electoral Commission in Kumasi was broken into by the protestors with some doors being destroyed. According to the Ashanti Regional Chairman of the NDC, he received a slap from an officer.
Prior to the fisticuff, the Ghana Police Service issued guidelines for the nationwide protest, emphasizing the importance of adhering to designated routes and timelines. The police assured the public of their commitment to maintaining a peaceful environment during the demonstration.
To ensure public safety and maintain order, police officers have taken strategic positions across the country, particularly in Accra’s Kwame Nkrumah Circle, where what appears to be a human barricade has been established.
Also, the Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mustapha Gbande, issued a stern warning to participants in the party’s nationwide demonstration. He emphasised that the NDC will not tolerate any disruptive behaviour during the protests.
The protesters are calling for a forensic audit of the 2024 voters’ register as demanded by the opposition party.
The Minority Leader, Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson, has announced that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) is considering recalling Parliament to press the Electoral Commission (EC) to conduct an audit of the voter’s register ahead of the 2024 general elections.
Dr. Forson insists that this audit is crucial to addressing irregularities that could compromise the credibility of the elections, emphasizing that it is essential to hold a free, fair, and transparent process. He made these remarks while addressing protesters during a nationwide demonstration organized by the NDC in Accra.
Below are videos of the protests happening across the country.
