An injunction issued by the Accra Regional Command of the Ghana Police Service against the Minority’s demonstration on September 5 has been deemed “irregular and wrong” by the Accra High Court.

The application lacked the Attorney General’s approval, the Court claimed.

As a result, Justice Edward Twum ordered the Command to revise their application within seven days as it was merely a typographical error to file it without the Inspector General of Police (IGP).

This comes after the Minority submitted an affidavit in opposition to the police’s application that was submitted last month.

However, Justice Twum rejected the initial objection put forth by Godwin Edudzi Tameklo, the lead attorney for the Minority.

The hearing was adjourned to September 18 on Monday.

Due to their disagreements on the protest’s path, the two sides have been in court.

The Minority intended to march from the Parliament House’s forecourt to the Bank of Ghana’s offices alongside a few other civil society organisations.

However, under the guise that the central bank office in Accra is a security zone, the police refused this request and asked the Minority to terminate at Black Star Square.

Following the Minority’s rejection of this police suggestion, law enforcement went to court to enjoin the march.

Initial plans called for Tuesday, September 5. Police have received a second notification for a march scheduled for Tuesday, September 12.

Sammy Gyamfi, the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC’s) national communications officer, told reporters following Friday’s court sessions, “So, we are getting ready for the big day, which is Tuesday’s demonstration.

“They have invited us to a meeting, and our representatives will be meeting them this afternoon at 2:00pm.”
