“Nobody can ban anybody from exercising their right that has been bestowed on the citizens of Ghana by just issuing a statement and claiming that protesting has been banned,” Mr. Otokunor told Accra-based Joy FM.
“We all know that demonstration has been enshrined by law, therefore, nobody can prevent us from protesting, nobody can prevent us from expressing our displeasure on the wrongs and the injustice that is been perpetrated in this country.” A statement from the Police on Wednesday said the court order restrains the party from organising protests and demonstrations in the capital from December 20, 2020, to January 10, 2021.
Lawyer Francis Xavier Sosu, MP-elect, Madina Constituency
Francis Xavier Sosu, the Member of Parliament-elect for Madina-Abokobi Constituency has indicated that he unseated Boniface Abubakar Siddique with a huge margin because he gave his constituents a listening ear during his campaign.
This approach, he said, helped him to understand what the people needed and made him realise that the issues on the ground were more than he had envisioned.
Speaking on Accra-based Joy FM monitored by GhanaWeb, Sosu stated, “I listened more to the people and listened to the ground (sic). I realized that there were many issues confronting Madina, and I did the listening tour, where I listened to them.”
