The leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has announced the suspension of its ongoing nationwide "Thank You Tour" to fully participate in the upcoming political demonstration, dubbed the "Save the Judiciary Demo," scheduled for May 5, 2025.
This decision follows growing concerns about President John Dramani Mahama's recent suspension of Chief Justice Gertrude Araba Esaaba Sackey Torkornoo, a move that has sparked widespread criticism and accusations of undermining the independence of the judiciary.
The protest, a coordinated effort by five political parties, aims to challenge what they see as a direct assault on the judiciary's autonomy, which is a crucial pillar of Ghana's democratic system.
Henry Nana Boakye (Nana B), the National Organiser of the NPP, revealed the party's shift in focus in an interview with Asaase News.
