The National Youth Wing of the (NPP) has demanded the prosecution of the arrested Democracy Hub protesters.
A statement issued on September 26, 2024, and signed by the National Youth Organiser, Salam Mustapha, alleged that the protesters were miscreants and hooligans pretending to be demonstrators, and therefore, they must be made to face the law.
The statement condemned the lawless acts displayed by some of the protesters and urged other citizens to speak out against the misconduct and violence that ensued. "The National Youth Wing of the (NPP) has taken note of the recent arrests made by the Ghana Police Service involving individuals engaged in various acts of vandalism, destruction of property, unlawful assembly, and assault on public officers. "These acts were perpetuated by some miscreants and hooligans masquerading as demonstrators under the name Democracy Hub. "We firmly believe that individuals who take the law into their own hands and commit such criminal acts under the guise of a demonstration must be held accountable and face the full rigours of the law in our courts.
Law and order are fundamental to the peace and security of our nation, and those who violate these principles should not be exempt from justice," the statement said.
