The National Democratic Congress (NDC) is calling on all Ghanaians, particularly the youth, to participate in the demonstration dubbed ‘March For Justice’ on Tuesday, July 6.
A statement issued by the General Secretary of the party, Johnson Asiedu Nketia, on Monday, july 5 noted that the planned demonstration, to be staged under the auspices of the party’s Youth Wing, is “to help raise awareness about the state of insecurity and lawlessness in Ghana and compel President Akufo-Addo to wake up from his slumber and act with urgency”.
“The protest march will therefore remind President Akufo-Addo of his responsibilities towards the people of Ghana especially in the area of public safety and security. It will seek to draw attention of the government to the growing loss of public confidence in the hierarchy of some security agencies.
“The march will also signal the beginning of public sensitization activities to compel the government to rid the security agencies of NPP hoodlums and misfits who have been recruited and are being used to terrorize innocent and peace loving Ghanaians.
“The march will also be in solidarity with the silent majority of security personnel who are concerned about the undue politicization of recruitment and appointments to the detriment of professionalism and discipline.
“Finally, we intend to remind the Akufo Addo junta that Ghanaians have had enough of the state-sponsored brutalities and harassment against innocent, peace loving citizens.”
