The National Organizer of the main
opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Joshua Hamidu Akamba has
disclosed that the leadership of Arise Ghana is gathering footage of the police
brutalities that happened at Obra Spot on Tuesday 28, 2022 to sue the law
enforcers.
Members of the Arise Ghana were
demonstrating to register their displeasure about the current economic
hardships in the country.
“We will also go to court with our
footage of the police brutalities to sue the management of the police for the
atrocities they committed against innocent Ghanaians who were seeking to
register their displeasure,” he said.
Mr Akamba made this revelation while
speaking on Accra 100.5 FM’s midday news on Wednesday 28, 2022 to react to
calls that the police are seeking to sue the leaders of the demonstration.
“It is important as leaders we counter
sue the management of the police administration for the callous brutalities
that reared their ugly head ahead of the march on Tuesday leading to the police
gassing the protesters with tear gas,” he noted.
He called on the media to make such
footage available to the leadership of the group.
“We need the evidence and if we have
to pay for them we will,” he said adding “It is important we gather this
evidence to confront the police with it”.
So far 29 of the demonstrators have
been arrested.
