A group of Ghanaians who are unhappy with what they call the economic challenges in the country have declared their intention to protest on May 9, 2021.
The group has been expressing its displeasure over successive government’s failure to improve the living standards of Ghanaians on Twitter using the hashtag #FixTheCountry.
They cited dumsor, unemployment, poor healthcare systems as proof of successive governments’ mismanagement of the country.
“The event which is a single purpose event is being organized on the back of a string of consistently broken promises by successive governments and in the exercise of our democratic rights as citizens to express our frustration over perennial governmental incompetence, refusal and/or inability to fix the country,” the group said in a statement.
The group does not intend to deliver a petition to the presidency but will converge on Independence Square at 8:30 am for the march to commence at 9:30 am.
The group promised to hold a peaceful protest while adhering to COVID-19 safety protocols.
