The Ghana Police Services have assured the #Fixthecountry campaigners of adequate protection ahead of their planned demonstration on August 4.
It follows a meeting between the police and the conveners of the campaign at the police headquarters in Accra on Monday 19 July 2021.
“The police are poised to provide the necessary security for the safety of the planned procession of members of the #fixthecountry movement on Wednesday 4th August, 2021,” the police posted on Facebook.
According to the police, they have agreed on routes for the demonstration and the need to adhere to the COVID-19 protocols with the organisers.
“All matters relating to the special event was discussed and agreed, including the routes and COVID-19 protocols. The Police and conveners will continue to deliberate,” it added.
Ghanaians demonstrate in Spain
Scores of Ghanaians last month demonstrated in Spain as part of moves to push the Akufo-Addo government to fix challenges facing the country.
Protesters held placards with inscriptions such as “fix the country now”, “stop corruption”, “we need good leaders” among others.
The demonstrators were unhappy about what they describe as bad governance, youth exploitation, unemployment, killer taxes, high cost of living and corruption.
