A section of Ghanaians have expressed widespread condemnation of the recent protest organized by Democracy Hub, which spiraled into chaos, causing significant disruptions in the capital.

The protest, aimed at addressing government inaction on illegal mining, instead resulted in gridlock and vandalism, leaving many citizens frustrated and angry.

The demonstration, which began on September 21, 2024, was intended to be a peaceful assembly, but it quickly devolved into disorder when protestors defied a High Court order prohibiting them from gathering at Revolutionary Square.

Instead, they gathered at the 37 Roundabout, leading to confrontations with police.
