On Tuesday, June 28, 2022, at a rally organised by the pressure group Arise Ghana in Accra, some protesters were shot at by the police after being attacked with rocks.
As people continue to throw stones at the police, the police are continuing to fire, according to Eric Mawuena Ebegta of TV3.
The Police are refusing to let them utilise the Ring Road through to the Presidency, and because of their insistence on doing so, the protestors have been attacked with tear gas and water cannons. At the Obra location in Accra, things are currently as described.
Early on during the protest, Samuel Nartey George, a politician from Ningo Prampram, declared that the pressure group's members will continue. to exert pressure on the government to act morally.
He urged the President to utilise the Presidential jet, as was used by his predecessor, former President John Dramani Mahama, instead of hiring planes for his international travel.
He remarked, "The President should cease flying in rented and opulent planes and utilise the presidential jet that President Mahama used," when speaking to members of the pressure group during their rally in Accra on Tuesday, June 28.
We promise everyone that one day, just as the Bible promises, gladness will return in the morning after a time of mourning. Our happiness will arrive on January 7th, 2024, but not before December 7th, 2024.

"Demand a full-scale, bipartisan parliamentary investigation of COVID-19 spending; protest the administration of Akufo-Addo and Bawumia's officials' appropriation of public lands, notably their declassification of substantial areas of the Achimota Forest reserve.
"Protest against the rising culture of human rights violations under the watch of President Akufo-Addo and Alhaji Bawumia, as well as the increased rate of police brutalities and state-sponsored murders of innocent Ghanaians."
