The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has rescheduled its Probity and Accountability march in memory of former President Jerry John Rawlings to November 30.
In a press statement signed by the NDC General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah Wednesday, he explained that the postponement is to enable the police provide them with the needed security during the march in accordance with the Public Order Act, 1994 (Act 491).
The march previously scheduled for Thursday is being organised by the NDC, in conjunction with other political parties and Civil Society Organisations to commemorate the life and legacy of the founder of the NDC and Ghana’s 4th Republic, Mr Rawlings.
In the statement, the NDC outlined the route for the march.
“The route for the March as discussed and agreed with the Police is as follows: Converging point will be Obra Spot, through to Farisco Traffic light, Accra Poly road through the Ghana Law School road and to Rawlings Circle and finally to the Osekan Park. The March will commence at 6am prompt.”
They stated that, “The party believes that it is imperative to rally Ghanaians to uphold and respect the principles of probity and accountability enshrined in the 1992 Constitution of Ghana, particularly at this time that corruption and nepotism have reached unprecedented levels in the country.”
They sent an open invitation to the general public and all political parties including the ruling New Patriotic Party to join in the march as a befitting tribute to the memory of Rawlings.
“The NDC kindly invites all its teeming supporters, Political Parties including the ruling New Patriotic Party, CSOs and the general public to join in this march, which is a befitting tribute to the memory of Ghana's foremost anti-corruption giant,” they stated.
