Following the end of the three-day demonstration by the Democracy Hub group, the Police have expressed gratitude to members of the public, especially those in Accra, for their support and understanding in helping to maintain law and order during the demonstration.

The Police apologized to members of the public who were inconvenienced in one way or the other, especially those who were caught up in the vehicular holdups during the demonstration.

“As the demonstration has come to an end, we look forward to meeting with the organizers for a debriefing session with them with the aim of fostering a more fruitful engagement in the future.

“We would like to assure the public once again, that the Service is not against any person or group of persons who may want to demonstrate. We have a track record of providing security for demonstrations in the past and would continue to do so within the confines of the law,” a statement issued by the Police said on Saturday September 23.

The statement added “We, therefore, urge the general public to continue to partner us, as we work towards deepening our democratic credentials and maintaining peace and security in our beloved country.”
