The Minority in Parliament has rescheduled its second protest demanding the removal of the Governor of the Bank of Ghana (BoG), Dr. Ernest Addison, and his two deputies.
Originally planned for July 30, the protest will now take place on August 13.
In a letter to the police dated Tuesday, July 23, the Minority explained that the rescheduling is due to the upcoming launch of the National Democratic Congress' (NDC) 2024 campaign in Tamale on July 27.
The Minority noted that many of its members will be attending the campaign event, leaving them with insufficient time to prepare for the protest.
"Following our discussion and conclusion of the date with your office, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) announced the 27th of July 2024 as the date of the launch of our national campaign in Tamale."
"Given that this date is so close to our planned demonstration in Accra, the 27th July date has become inconvenient."
"Pursuant to sections 1, 2, and 3 of the Public Order Act 1994 (Act 491), I hereby write to request for the rescheduling of the demonstration from its original date of Tuesday 30th July, 2024 to Tuesday 13th August, 2024, between the hours of 8 am and 6 pm. The route remains the same," an excerpt of the letter said.
