Tension flared at the Ministry of Finance between the Operation Recover All Loot (ORAL) Brigade, a youth group affiliated with the National Democratic Congress (NDC), and security forces.
The ORAL Brigade on September 4, assembled at the Finance Ministry to protest alleged financial mismanagement by the government led by President Akufo-Addo.
The group recently stepped up its demands for accountability, claiming their protest is aimed at exposing what they believe to be serious financial mismanagement.
Key issues of contention include the unresolved $34.9 million Ambulance Spare Parts deal, which the group argues raises concerns about the legitimacy of the procurement process and the use of the funds intended to improve emergency medical services.
Additionally, the ORAL Brigade voiced concerns about the Ghana Revenue Authority's (GRA) involvement in the Strategic Mobilisation Limited (SML) deal and called for full transparency regarding the expenditure on the 2023 All-African Games.
