Demo Against Mahama In Washington DC Next Week

MahamaGhanaians in the United States of America (USA) have scheduled a protest march outside Ghana’s embassy in Washington DC over “economic hardship in Ghana”. A statement issued by organizers, Ghanaians Against Bad Governance, said the demonstration will be held on Wednesday, July 23.

The protest is in response to the present economic hardship in Ghana, which is a result of, but not limited to, economic mismanagement, misplaced priorities, well-intentioned but badly planned and corruption ridden social interventions, and the blatant violation of the laws and policies of Ghana by our leaders.

The aforementioned has resulted in a high cost of living, a currency in free fall, high interest rates, energy and water crisis, recurrent agitation by various labor organizations and a recent down grading of Ghana’s sovereign rating by Moody, just to mention a few.

Ghanaians Against Bad Governance will be protesting outside the Ghana Embassy in DC at 3512 International Dr NW, Washington, DC 20008 where a petition will be presented to the head of the Consular Affairs, in the absence of a substantive Ambassador, to be forwarded to the Government of Ghana. Any Ghanaian, and everyone who is interested in demanding accountability from leadership are welcome to join our protest.
