NDC members and sympathizers on Tuesday July 6th 2021, hit the street of Accra to demonstrate against what the party describes as injustice and state-sponsored aggression in the country under President Nana Addo’s government.
The protest which was held by the NDC’s youth-wing began from the Tetteh Quarshie interchange and moved through the Liberation road through to Aviation road to Lands Commission.
They then proceeded to the Jubilee House where the General Security of the party and the National Women Organizer served the presidency with a petition.
From there they used the Ako Adjei interchange and moved to the Parliament House of Ghana.
Red and black were the colours most of the people protesting wore. Many who protested were seen with placards with different inscriptions. Some read; ‘kum yen preko’ Ghanaian lives matter’, #weareallkaaka, no peace and many more.
In an interview at the protest grounds, the Deputy General Secretary of the NDC, Peter Boamah Otokunor said Ghana’s security is fast deteriorating and there is a need for the President to act urgently to fight against ‘state-sponsored aggression’.
He stressed that the turnout of people in their numbers to demonstrate should send a wake up call to the President for him to review the authoritarian tendencies that he has brought upon the country’s democracy.
