has reprimanded the organizers and participants of the Democracy Hub protest that began on Friday, September 20.

The protest, which aimed to challenge the government to clamp down on illegal mining (galamsey) operations, ended in chaos with the police using minimum force to restore order.

The police were compelled to apprehend the protesters after they defied orders and engaged in vandalism around the 37 Military Hospital.

They blocked the road, refusing to allow commuters to pass, and their leader, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, forcibly removed keys from a police vehicle and threw them away, which incurred the wrath of the officers on the scene.
