The Ghana Police Service has confirmed the arrest of several members of the Democracy Hub group for engaging in illegal activities during a demonstration at the 37 Roundabout in Accra.
The protesters were accused of blocking roads, dismantling police barriers, and causing significant disruptions to traffic in the area.
In an official statement, the police disclosed that they have launched a manhunt for Oliver Barker-Vormawor, one of the leaders of the protest, along with others involved in acts of lawlessness.
The demonstration, which initially focused on the economic situation in the country, later took on an anti-galamsey (illegal mining) theme.
In widely circulated videos, Oliver Barker-Vormawor is seen taking a key from a police vehicle and throwing it away before fleeing the scene.
Another video shows him toppling police barricades without provocation, further escalating tensions between the protesters and law enforcement.
The police have vowed to bring all those responsible for the disruption to justice, urging the public to assist in locating Oliver Barker-Vormawor and other individuals involved in the protest.
