The Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah has urged all people who embark on protests to adhere to the laws governing demonstrations.

He said that the right of citizens to protest in a democracy is inviolable and absolute.

It's a tool at our disposal to hold governments accountable.

He stated that the Democracy Hub's protest last weekend, about the adverse impact of illegal small-scale mining (Galamsey) on the environment enjoys the support of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the NPP, who he said had made every effort since 2017 to preserve the water bodies.
