The opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) said on Friday it will hold a demonstration on 23 September to protest what it called state-sponsored harassment by the Ghana Police Service against its members.
The announcement was made by the party’s National Youth Organiser, Salam Mustapha, in a Facebook post, following the remand of Bono Regional Chairman Kwame Baffoe, popularly known as Abronye DC.
An Accra Circuit Court on Friday ordered Abronye DC to remain in police custody for two weeks while prosecutors continue investigations. He was first arrested on 8 September on suspicion of “offensive conduct conducive to the breach of public peace,” according to the police.
“Tuesday, 23rd September, the National Youth Wing will organise a demo against the state-sponsored police harassment. From Obra Spot to police headquarters. 6 a.m. sharp!” Mustapha wrote.
The protest is expected to draw large numbers of NPP supporters.
