NDC banned from further protests by police
The High Court directed the Accra Regional Police Command to bar members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) from participating in more protests in Accra.
This comes after the NDC's recent rampant protest about what they claim to be a defective poll. John Dramani Mahama, already the presidential nominee for the NDC, has vowed to use every legal means to reject the election results of the EC in favor of President-elect Akufo-Addo.
“The Accra Regional Police Command has secured a restraining order against the National Democratic Congress (NDC), from embarking on further protests and demonstrations in Accra. In a matter between the Republic (Ghana Police Service) and National Democratic Congress and Kobina Ade Coker, the High Court, under Justice Elfreda Amy Dankyi (Mrs.), has prohibited all NDC intended protests from
Sunday 20th December, 2020 10th January, 2021. The prohibition order follows an Affidavit filed by the Police upon receipt of
notification from the Greater Accra Regional Chairman of NDC, Kobina Ade Coker, on intended daily protests within the above mentioned dates in Accra and all constituencies across the region. The request by the NDC cannot obviously be met by the police in view of ongoing post-election and multifaceted security”
