The Director of Communications for the Bawumia Campaign Team, Dennis Miracle Aboagye, has condemned the actions of Democracy Hub protesters who recently destroyed and burned New Patriotic Party (NPP) paraphernalia during their demonstration against the economic crisis.
The protesters tore down party items, a move that has sparked outrage within the NPP.
In a Facebook post, Dennis Miracle described the destruction of party property as senseless and a crime against the state.
He expressed deep concern over the protesters' actions, arguing that such behaviour goes beyond peaceful demonstration and undermines the democratic process.
His comments come amid escalating tensions between the Democracy Hub and the Ghana Police Service, following a series of protests that have resulted in several arrests.
The protests, aimed at addressing the country's economic challenges, have also led to significant disruptions in the capital city.
Mr Aboagye further called on the authorities to take swift action against those responsible for the destruction of the NPP paraphernalia, stressing that while peaceful protests are a constitutional right, acts of vandalism and lawlessness must not be tolerated.
“Shame! How does this even make sense… Demonstrate for 365Days…Protest for 700 days but for the sake of mother Ghana, do not destroy nor burn properties. It’s senseless!"
“This violent attention-seeking antics will surely get the needed attention. The fact behind the poor turnout of your protest is not because Ghanaians have no concerns, it’s simply because Ghanaians do not follow thugs hiding behind democracy to perpetrate a crime against the state."
“Let the Police do the right thing by arresting them, and you will find these same people, who are boldly flaunting on National TV his commission of crime by burning the properties of other citizens, openly flouting the law by illegally blocking principal roads start crying and insulting the police."
