Arrest of OccupyJulorbiHouse Protesters Sparks Controversy: Democracy Under Scrutiny

Questions arise as citizens ponder whether the arrest of peaceful demonstrators aligns with the principles of democracy. Some argue that Ghana is slowly descending into lawlessness due to the influence of politicians and their self-serving interests. Interestingly, the sentiment is shared by those who see little distinction between the major political parties, NPP and NDC.

Adding a layer of complexity to the situation is the fact that the chairman of the police council is the Vice President of Ghana, currently engaged in campaigning in the Western North Region for a presidential bid.

The hashtags #OccupyJulorbiHouse surge on social media platforms as Ghanaians engage in discussions, expressing their concerns and seeking transparency in this evolving scenario.

This incident serves as a critical juncture in Ghana's democratic journey, prompting citizens to reflect on the balance between political power and the fundamental principles of democracy.
