Democracy Hub Protest: John Mahama Condemns Arrests of Peaceful Protesters in Ghana

The flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dramani Mahama, has criticised the treatment of Democracy Hub protesters who were arrested during a demonstration against illegal mining, also known as galamsey.

The protest, which was intended to be peaceful, turned violent when some demonstrators clashed with the police.

The Ghana Police Service accused the protesters of blocking roads, dismantling police barriers, and obstructing traffic during their demonstration at the 37 Roundabout in Accra.

As a result, over 40 protesters were arrested, and 39 of them were later remanded into police custody for two weeks. 11 more protesters were remanded on Wednesday, September 25.

In a Facebook post, Mahama condemned the situation, describing the remand decision as “high-handed” and an “abuse of their rights”.

He argued that the country needs to balance the maintenance of law and order with protecting the rights and freedoms of its citizens.

Mahama stated that the youth of Ghana have a right to engage in peaceful manifestations to protect their future, especially on issues like environmental destruction.

He called on the authorities to request the judge to review the remand decision and grant the protesters bail immediately.

The former President emphasised that draconian judicial decisions will not stop young people from speaking out against issues that affect their future.
