The Police Administration claims that suitable security measures have been put in place for a planned demonstration by the “Justice 4 Ghana” group on December 8, 2021.
The police also revealed that attempts to persuade the organizers to reverse their decision not to picket at Parliament were ineffective, and that they had now obtained a court order prohibiting them from doing so.
The Police in a statement said it has secured the necessary approvals for the demonstration.

Justice for Ghana said its demand is for a complete withdrawal of the e-Levy.
According to them, the protest is in response to the general harsh economic environment in the country.
